More reasons the Matt Clement trade won't happen

The Red Sox traded Bronson Arroyo to the Reds for Wily Mo Pena today, which involves the Pirates in several ways. First and foremost, it means that the Craig Wilson for Clement deal is dead. There's no way the Sox will trade both these guys. It also means that the Red Sox turned Bronson Arroyo, whom they got from off of waivers for absolutely zilch, into Wily Mo Pena, a rather promising young guy who kills the ball and is perfectly suited for Fenway. And of course the final straw is that we had been hoping the Pirates would deal for Pena, and while comparing what Krivsky traded for him in March to what O'Brien would've been asking for him in November (as well as the fact that they traded him to a team they wouldn't be playing 20 times a year) when we were dealing with the Reds is like comparing apples and oranges, but I think it's pretty safe to say we could've found some way to get this deal done without mortgaging the future.
