We all new this could happen at some point. Question now is, who matches up for Lugo? I know J will say SD and to try and get Greene. This could be a nice option. Some here will look at his low BA and be turned off. But this kid has power, and a great glove. Put him in a hitters park like Fenway, and that will come up.
For this deal to work, I would imagine that this would be a 3 team deal.
Anyone got any trade ideas? Heres one,
Boston trades Coco to SD, Lugo to CHC, CHC sends a prospect/ or Izturis to SD, Sox recieve Greene plus maybe a BP arm.

I don't see Lugo starting ahead of Ryan Theriot in Chicago so why would Chicago pay him $9M for some spot starts. The Cubs also have a very serviceable backup SS in Ronny Cedeno. Both Theriot and Cedeno are batting above .300 and between the two of them this season their errors do not total Lugo's. Izturis - Chicago??
