Keough and Bowsfield Traded to Indians for Nixon and Hardy
Boston Red Sox swap outfielder Marty Keough and lefty Ted Bowsfield to Cleveland for catcher Russ Nixon and outfielder Carroll Hardy. The deal, a straight exchange with no cash, follows Mike Higgins’ hiring as manager after Billy Jurges’ release. Nixon’s return stems from a spring training dispute. Sammy White’s earlier trade to Cleveland for Nixon was voided when White retired. Keough, 25, hit .247 in 38 games this season and had moved from center field, while Bowsfield, 24, went 1-2 as a reliever after rising from Minneapolis.
