Rumor: "Pretty Good" chance of Red Sox getting Dye

UPDATE: Edes says it would be Manny Delcarmen or Justin Masterson as the pitcher.

Things are heating up...Gordon Edes of the Boston Globe has a Major League source indicating that the Red Sox have a "pretty good" chance of completing a trade for Jermaine Dye.

The White Sox would apparently receive Wily Mo Pena and a pitching prospect other than Jon Lester or Clay Buccholz. That could still leave Michael Bowden, Daniel Bard, Bryce Cox, or Craig Hansen. All four have struggled this year but still have plenty of promise. Justin Masterson is another intriguing name, but he's pitched well in four starts at Double A.
