From late Monday night to early Tuesday morning, the Boston Red Sox made two large acquisitions: John Lackey and Mike Cameron. Lackey had been rumored to the Red Sox since the offseason started. The 31-year-old right-hander had pitched his entire career with the Los Angeles Angels.

Lyon, a Type B free agent, formerly of the Detroit Tigers, posted a 2.86 ERA with a WHIP of 1.11, and a record of 6-5 last season.
