Lester and Gomes to A's for Cespedes

Trade deadline day in the majors and after all the hype, Sox starter Jon Lester was dealt to the Oakland A's. 

Complete deal:

Oakland A's Get:
Jon Lester
Jonny Gomes
$


Boston Red Sox Get:
Yoenis Cespedes
Competitive balance draft pick


Cespedes is a free agent after next season, so it's not as much of a slam dunk for the Sox as you might think. 

MORE TRADE NEWS:

John Lackey to Cardinals for Allen Craig and Joe Kelly. 

I'll have more tonight, hosting from 7pm-midnight on 98.5 The Sports Hub.
