Red Sox Outright Carlos Peguero; Japanese Team Interested

The Red Sox have outrighted outfielder Carlos Peguero to Triple-A Pawtucket, according to the MLB.com transactions page. However, he has yet to report and Chris Cotillo of SB Nation (on Twitter) hears rumblings that there may be a Japanese team interested in acquiring his rights.

Peguero, 28, was designated for assignment on June 4th in order to make room for the newly-added Alejandro De Aza. Peguero himself was a new addition for the Red Sox as Boston acquired him in late May from the Rangers.
