In an interview with ESPN Boston’s Gordon Edes Papelbon said the following:
“I had no idea we got [John] Lackey until [trainer Mike] Reinold came down to see me, just a few days ago,” he said. “I swear to you. I don’t know anything about the ballclub.” Adrian Beltre deal? He hadn’t heard. Casey Kotchman about to be traded to the Mariners? Nope. “Cameron, Mike Cameron?” he said. “We got him? I swear to you, I didn’t know.”
Seems like Paps has been taking the Manny Ramirez approach to the offseason.
