Wes Littleton has been traded to Boston for cash considerations or a PTBNL.
Jon Daniels is saying the PTBNL may not be named until sometime in the spring. My guess is there is a list of guys the Rangers will get to choose from, and they'll spend the winter and some of the spring scouting them.

Wes Littleton was traded to the BoSox for future considerations. He was out of options anyway. ...

Red Sox acquired RHP Wes Littleton from the Rangers for two players to be named or cash.
