That’s the case for Boston Red Sox ace Jon Lester, who has taken to Twitter to talk about the trade rumors he’s been involved in this week and to thank fans for the support they’ve given him in this difficult and uncertain time for his career in Boston.
The trade rumors aren’t going away at all and that seems to only further suggest that the Red Sox will be dealing Lester at some point in the next 24 hours. That being said, Red Sox fans won’t get too beat up if a trade happens, as it’s been made clear by Lester that he intends to re-sign with Boston — or at least try to — even if he’s traded this year.
