Deadline Day: Andruw Jones offered to Red Sox?

The buzz around Boston claims that the Braves have offered Andruw Jones to the Boston Red Sox for Jon Lester, Coco Crisp, and Craig Hansen. The motto for today is, take it for what's it worth. It is the trade deadline so rumors run rampant. Although, I think that is an interesting scenario, but I wouldn't do it because it's Andruw, c'mon.


**Update** Olney has confirmed that the two teams have talked and the deal would be Andruw Jones for Coco Crisp and Craig Hansen + prospect. Atlanta then countered asking for Jon Lester to be the third player. No word if Boston declined or not. There's 2 1/2 hours left on the clock and anything can happen.


**Update #2** For right now the talks are dead according to Gordon Edes of the Boston Globe. Thanks to mlbtraderumors for the update.
