The Red Sox have acquired 1B Adam LaRoche from the Pirates, according to the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette.
…so far, there are no indications of what the Sox sent to Pittsburgh… keep an eye on MLB Trade Rumors, who does an amazing job of following and logging the activity of these deals when in action…
The 29–year-old LaRoche is hitting .247 with 12 HR and 40 RBI in 87 games for the Pirates this season.
He ended the last two seasons with at least 21 HR, 85 RBI and a .341 OBP, while batting at least .270.
LaRoche will be a free agent at the end of this season.
For what it’s worth, Jack Wilson was not in today’s starting lineup for the Pirates as well, though there is no indication he is being moved.
Update, 1:15 pm:
According to WEEI, the Sox traded RHP Hunter Strickland and 21–year-old SS Argenis Diaz in exchange for LaRoche.
