The Plummeting Stock of Lars Anderson
The Indians acquired Lars Anderson from the Red Sox on Tuesday, sending knuckleballing prospect Steven Wright — not to be confused with this guy — to Boston.

Lars Anderson Called Up; Repko To The DL
When the Boston Red Sox signed Adrian Gonzalez, the future for Lars Anderson as the first baseman in Boston pretty much went by the wayside.
He spent all of last year toiling in Triple-A with the Pawtucket Red Sox and was almost traded to the Oakland A's at the trade deadline for Rich Harden. Unfortunately for him, that trade fell through and he was still a man without...
