Red Sox confirm Mirabelli trade

The Boston Red Sox have confirmed through a press release that they have reacquired catcher Doug Mirabelli in a trade with the San Diego Padres. The deal sends catcher Josh Bard, Triple-A relief pitcher Cla Meredith and either a player to be named later or cash to the Padres for Mirabelli, a member of the 2004 world championship Red Sox. Mirabelli was traded from Boston to San Diego in the offseason for second baseman Mark Loretta. He will resume his familiar role -- catching knuckleballer Tim Wakefield -- apparently beginning tonight against the Yankees.
