The Mike Lowell to Rangers deal is off because he needs surgery on his thumb. The Boston Herald has this news:
The Red Sox third baseman was expected to be dealt to the Rangers as soon as tomorrow, but an exam on his right thumb revealed a torn radial collateral ligament in his right thumb which will require surgery, according to a major league source. He will have the surgery sometime after Christmas and will be sidelined six to eight weeks, though he’s expected to be ready for spring training.
This will throw a wrench into any negotiations for Adrian Gonzalez.
