eric gagne means absoultley nothen for the sox, the redsox have one of the best pitching staffs out there, gagne is washed up, he used to be good but not anymore, the last thing the sox need is a closer or a releiver like him, with paplebon, okahjima, and the rest of their bullpen.  They gave up one of their top young pitchers, gabbard as well, it wont hurt the sox, but definitley not a great trade, they should of went for jermane dye
