This just in: the Red Sox have signed Alfredo Aceves to a Major League deal.
This stings.
Aceves was great for the Yankees in 2009. He pitched 84 innings in 43 games with a 3.54 ERA and a 10-1 record. He missed most of 2010 with a back injury and is not expected to be ready to start the season after he needed surgery to fix his clavicle that he broke in a bike accident.
So Brian Cashman released Aceves because he didn’t want him on a guaranteed contract and eat-up a spot on the 40-man roster.
