MARK MELANCON RUMORS
This is the story about a man named Jed
The Red Sox should never make trades with the Houston Astros. In what might be the
beantowner's second worst trade since Bagwell, the team from Boston sent Jed Lowrie and
Kyle Weiland for Mark Melancon. And sure, Melancon did have a severe meltdown early for
