Snyder designated for assignment
Though the Red Sox didn't make an official announcement this afternoon, Kyle Snyder confirmed to the Globe that he has been designated for assignment to make room for Josh Beckett on the 25-man roster.
Snyder is out of options, so he cannot be sent to Triple A.
He did not want to speak further this afternoon, though he did say he would talk to the media tomorrow. He walked around the clubhouse, saying good bye to David Aardsma, and heading over to talk to Jason Varitek before leaving the room.
The reliever came in after Clay Buchholz in today's game, going 1/3 of an inning, giving up two earned runs and two walks.
Beckett will start tomorrow's game against the Blue Jays in his return from a back injury suffered in spring training.
No big loss
Amen about time...
finally!!
that sucks, too bad he couldn't get things together. he had a few good moments in a sox uniform but its all over now. too bad they coudn't have gotten something for him... even if it was just a minor leaguer.

This isnt entirely true. He has to go on waivers first. If he clears waivers he can be sent down. Since I dont believe he has 5 full seasons of service, they wouldnt need his written consent.
But he'll probably be claimed by somebody.....
