Michael Young wants out of Texas. Do the Sox have enough to get him and start him at 3rd even if they wanted him?

Enough talent to acquire him? Yes

Enough money to pay his 3yr/$48M contract? No

Would have to be a situation in which Texas is paying most of the contract, which I could see going either depending on how bad Young wants to be traded

I am sure the "Sox are talking to the Rangers" rumor are just around the corner

The Sox are on Young's "No trade" list.

Button 48 time. Years ago a group of us went to visit our friend of a friend who was a major leaguer and after the game we went to dinner and he brought Dmitri Young along. Really nice guy and I think he picked up the check (too Bears playoff drunk to remember).

Didn't Dmitri get arrested a few times for domestic violence type incidents? I seem to recall him being quoted as saying something along the lines of that he liked " drugs better than women", cuz he could could trust drugs, or no drug ever betrayed him or whatever.
