The Red Sox have traded Kevin Youkilis to the White Sox for a pitcher with a 5.92 ERA in 31 appearances and a utility infielder/outfielder who is hitting .215 in 48 games this season.

Even with his .233 batting average this season, the aging You-kill-us will be an improvement for the White Sox at 3B.

The Red Sox will be paying $5.5 million of the $7 million Youkilis is due for the remainder of the season.

The Dodgers, Indians and Braves were reported to be the other teams most interested in obtaining him. I am glad the D'backs were not in the running.

I'm glad the D-Backs stayed out of this one, but I'm also betting Youk goes off in September.
