What's Joe Torre been up to? I haven't paid much attention to the Dodgers this season, mostly because they're never brought up when I'm just walking by the TV on Sports Center...

Red Sox Acquire Paul Byrd
By Tim Dierkes [August 12 at 2:47pm CST]According to Nick Cafardo of the Boston Globe, the Red Sox acquired starter Paul Byrd today for a player to be named later or cash. Byrd, 37, has a 4.53 ERA in 131 innings this year. He relies on pinpoint control and has strung together five solid starts.
Byrd had cleared waivers on account of his $7.5MM salary. He's still owed over $2MM; no word on whether the Red Sox will pay all of it.

[IFRAME tag removed]Tigers To Sign Freddy Garcia
By Tim Dierkes [August 12 at 1:47pm CST]According to Jon Heyman of SI.com, Freddy Garcia agreed to a minor league contract with the Tigers. The Tigers hope to have him in the Majors by month's end for a playoff drive.
The Tigers are eight games out in the AL Central and 9.5 out of the wild card, so their playoff chances hover around 2-4%. But there's not much downside to adding Garcia just in case.
