Red Sox-Dodgers Trade ‘Pretty Much Done’

You’ve been waiting up all night, haven’t you, waiting to see if the huge Boston Red Sox/Los Angeles Dodgers trade is finished?

No, of course you haven’t. You just woke up, it’s Saturday morning, and you’re lazily checking here to see if there’s any news.

There is one bit of new information:

The teams have 48 hours from the time the waiver claims were made to complete this trade; that would make the trade-completion deadline sometime Sunday afternoon. There’s still quite a bit of paperwork to be finished, based on Ken Rosenthal’s tweet, but it seems as if the process is moving along, and could be finished as soon as sometime Saturday.
