08:28 AM ET 08.01 | The Yankees found the price to acquire Eric Gagne too steep for them, even if it meant he went to their rivals, the Red Sox. That's exactly what happened, as Gagne waived his no-trade clause prior to yesterday's 4 p.m. non-waivers trade deadline to join the Red Sox. Yankees general manager Brian Cashman held fast to his promise that certain players were not available. The Rangers wanted either centerfielder Melky Cabrera or righthander Ian Kennedy as a centerpiece of a deal, sources confirmed. When the Yankees decided not to offer any of those players, the Red Sox added Gagne in exchange for minor-league outfielders David Murphy and Engel Beltre and lefthander Kason Gabbard.
