This is a nice move. Charlie is going to have the best chance of success possible - by the ocean in a huge National League park - and the Sox add a player to the 40-man who should stick beyond this season.
The Sox easily could have cut garbage like Day instead, but it looks like this might have been more of a favor to Charlie to find a new team before the end of the season and get a fresh start. Charlie has a future somewhere, but it's just not in this ballpark.
