As I reported here yesterday (last line of the post), the Red Sox have signed Paul McAnulty to a minor league contract. Other news outlets just caught wind of this today.
The Red Sox also announced that they have added 3 minor leaguers to the 40-man roster in anticipation of the December 11th Rule 5 draft to be held at the Winter Meetings in Las Vegas, NV. The Red Sox had until today to set their reserve lists.
LHP Hunter Jones (Triple-A Pawtucket), catcher Mark Wagner (Double-A Portland) and Felix Doubront (Single-A Salem) were all added to the roster. The Red Sox still have 3 spots on their 40-man roster.
