The Red Sox finally made their big move, dealing four of their top 20 prospects for White Sox left-hander Garrett Crochet. Ian and Chris broke down the deal, looking at the players going both ways and whether either team came out on top. Plus, Elmer Rodriguez was dealt for Carlos Narvaez and, oh yeah, the Rule 5 Draft happened, with one Sox farmhand getting picked in the MLB phase while the team came out even in the minor league phase, with four new players replacing four more players who will be moving on to other teams.
