Around the Majors: Red Sox-Marlins tradeby Lee SininsNovember 25, 2005 1) The Red Sox-Marlins trade was completed and expanded. The Marlins traded Ps Josh Beckett and Guillermo Mota, 3B Mike Lowell and cash to the Red Sox for minor leaguers SS Hanley Ramirez and Ps Anibal Sanchez, Jesus Delgado and Harvey Garcia.
