2) The Red Sox traded OF Jay Payton and cash to the A’s for P Chad Bradford.

Payton had been removed from the 25 and 40 man rosters when the Red Sox designated him for assignment on July 7. Since Payton wasn’t on the 25 man roster and Bradford is being taken off the DL and will be added to it, that’s why the Red Sox dropped 2 players and only added 1 in the prior note.
