Only three days removed from winning their second World Series title in four seasons, the Red Sox wasted little time getting back to business.
Late Wednesday evening, Boston announced it had purchased the contract of catcher Dusty Brown from Triple-A Pawtucket. To make room on the roster, the club designated veteran infielder Royce Clayton for assignment.
Brown split the 2007 season between Double-A Portland and Pawtucket, batting .260 with nine homers and 46 RBI in 77 games. The righthanded batter is currently playing for Mesa in the Arizona Fall League and is hitting .276 in nine games for the Solar Sox. Brown has spent his entire seven-year pro career in the Boston organization.
In his brief stint with the PawSox, Brown was impressive both behind the plate and offensively.

Trade or let go Rameires & Lugo for a good shortstop Put Ellbury in left and hope Coco will improve in batting average
