Ed Coleman of WFAN is reporting that talks have intensified that the Mets have traded OF Angel Pagan to the Boston Red Sox for OF Coco Crisp.
Coleman reports no one has confirmed or denied this trade as of yet.
Rotoworld has the report as well…
According to WFAN’s Ed Coleman, the Red Sox and Mets are working on a deal that would send Coco Crisp to New York for Angel Pagan.
The Red Sox would be practically giving Crisp away, but they may feel they have no choice if he’s going to cause problems as a fourth outfielder. It’s not like there’s a real market for him when Corey Patterson can’t do better than a minor league deal and Kenny Lofton remains a free agent. Pagan at least can serve as a backup center fielder and would be content in the role, unlike Crisp.
