SAN DIEGO - Less than five months after acquiring Yoenis Cespedes as part of a big deadline deal, the Boston Red Sox traded the slugging outfielder to help
bolster their rotation.

.The Detroit Tigers were happy to take him.Boston sent
Cespedes to the Tigers on Thursday for right-hander Rick Porcello in a deal that
both teams hope will help fill significant needs. The Red Sox are rebuilding
their starting pitching after losing 91 games this year, and Detroit was able to
add another power hitter to a lineup that also includes Miguel Cabrera and
Victor Martinez.Pitchers Alex Wilson and Gabe Speier also went to Detroit as
part of the trade.We were not looking to trade Yoenis Cespedes, Boston general
manager Ben Cherington said. But as we got into the off-season and looked at
what our alternatives were, and we needed to build our rotation, and the depth
we had in the outfield — we feel good about the outfield group that we have.
Just felt it made sense.The Red Sox acquired Cespedes in July in the deal that
sent Jon Lester to Oakland. Cespedes finished the year with a .260 average, 22
home runs and 100 RBIs. Boston was unable to bring back Lester as a free agent,
and the Red Sox needed to add to their rotation after also trading Jake Peavy
and John Lackey during the season.Boston completed a one-year contract Thursday
night with free-agent right-hander Justin Masterson, who began his career with
the Red Sox, and has discussed a deal to obtain left-hander Wade Miley from
Arizona.Porcello does not turn 26 until later this month, but he has plenty of
experience. He made his debut with Detroit in 2009 as a 20-year-old, and hes
been a mainstay in the Tigers rotation ever since. He is coming off a season in
which he set career bests with 15 wins, a 3.43 ERA and 204 2-3 innings
pitched.Porcello has held hitters to a 53 per cent groundball rate, a skill that
may be more useful at Fenway Park than in Detroit.We feel hes been one of the
better starting pitchers in baseball, Cherington said. Hes been on a staff with
a lot of big-name pitchers so he gets buried in the names in Detroit. But hes
been really good in his own right.The Tigers, who have won the last four AL
Central titles, still have Justin Verlander, David Price and Anibal Sanchez in
their rotation, and they recently acquired Shane Greene from the New York
Yankees. Free agent star Max Scherzer remains on the open market.Detroit also
acquired right-handed starter Alfredo Simon from Cincinnati on Thursday.The
29-year-old Cespedes gives Detroit another power-hitting presence in the middle
of its lineup. The Tigers already made an addition to their outfield this
off-season, acquiring speedy centre fielder Anthony Gose from Toronto. Cespedes
joins a group of outfielders that also includes J.D. Martinez and Rajai Davis.If
J.D. Martinez can repeat his 23-homer performance of 2014, the Tigers should
have plenty of power threats, and although Cespedes has an on-base percentage of
only .316 in three major league seasons, he is a decade younger than outfielder
Torii Hunter, who left Detroit via free agency.Cespedes is a dynamic all-around
player who hits for power, provides solid run production and will play left
field, Tigers general manager Dave Dombrowski said. Alex Wilson is a solid
performer who has pitched at the major league level and will compete for a job
in our bullpen this spring. Gabe Speier is a young player that our scouts
like.The 28-year-old Wilson posted a 3.38 ERA in 56 innings for the Red Sox over
the last two seasons. The 19-year-old Speier went 3-0 with a 1.55 ERA for the
Gulf Coast League Red Sox in 2014.Cespedes and Porcello could both be free
agents after this season. Cespedes will make $10.5 million in 2015. Porcello is
arbitration-eligible after making $8.5 million this year.

third base just as Oakland catcher Derek Norris was throwing the ball back to
the pitcher caught most everyone by surprise -- including several of his Detroit
teammates.

. After overcoming a three-goal deficit the Senators forced the game to overtime
only to watch it slip away as Seth Jones scored the winner 3:49 into the extra
period as the Nashville Predators defeated the Senators 4-3 Monday night.LONDON
-- With David Beckham watching in the stands at West Ham, Manchester United
striker Wayne Rooney replicated one of the retired stars most memorable goals on
Saturday. Setting United on its way to a 2-0 victory, Rooney sent the ball high
from inside the halfway line over goalkeeper Adrian after just seven minutes.
"Its just instinct, Ive turned and had a quick look and seen the goalkeeper off
his line," Rooney said. "Its one of those Ive tried many times and thankfully
today its gone in." Just as it did on the opening day of the 1996-97 season for
Beckham, who lobbed Wimbledon goalkeeper Neil Sullivan from the halfway line.
"Waynes technical ability, his awareness to know where the goalkeeper was, was
amazing in the build-up, and then to actually execute it was superb," United
manager David Moyes said. "My only worry was whether the bounce would take it
over the bar or not." Moyes was actually more pleased with the second after the
wonder goal. Rooney was primed in front of goal to slot in from close range in
the 33rd after Mark Noble failed to fully clear Ashley Youngs low cross.

. "He was getting in the box and leading the line," Moyes said of
Rooney. Rooneys first double in almost four months moved him to third on Uniteds
all-time scoring chart, 38 behind Bobby Charltons record 249. The striker, who
signed a new deal through June 2019 last month, thrived at Upton Park in the
absence of Robin van Persie, who is beginning at least a month out with a left
knee injury. Moyes almost had to cope with a makeshift defence as United reeled
off a third consecutive away win in the league without conceding, days after
advancing to a Champions League quarterfinal with Bayern Munich by beating
Olympiakos. However rare this comfortable league win was for Moyes seventh-place
side, reaching the top four seems beyond this team, with Arsenal 11 points in
front in fourth place. "The win on Wednesday night against Olympiakos has given
us all a big lift," Rooney said. "You could see today the confidence running
through the team, so its a good victory and were really pleased with that."
