Question: Did Tampa Bay Rays acquired any veteran players from Red Sox?

The Devil Rays began to build their organization shortly after the franchise was awarded in 1995 by naming former Atlanta Braves assistant general manager Chuck LaMar the senior vice president of baseball operations and general manager.  Before the 1998 season, veteran stars Wade Boggs, Fred McGriff, and Wilson Álvarez were acquired.  The franchise's first minor league games took place in the 1996 season.  On November 7, 1997, Larry Rothschild was named the team's first manager.  The team acquired 35 players in the Expansion Draft on November 18, 1997.  Tony Saunders from the Florida Marlins was the first player drafted by the Devil Rays.  The team also drafted future star Bobby Abreu but traded him to the Philadelphia Phillies for Kevin Stocker, who had very little success for the Rays. <SEP> Wade Anthony Boggs (born June 15, 1958) is an American former professional baseball third baseman.  His hitting in the 1980s and 1990s made him a perennial contender for American League batting titles.  He is 33rd on the list of career leaders for batting average among Major League Baseball players with a minimum of 1000 plate appearances.  Boggs was elected to the Red Sox Hall of Fame in 2004 and the Baseball Hall of Fame in 2005.  He spent his 18-year baseball career primarily with the Boston Red Sox, but also played for the New York Yankees, with whom he won the 1996 World Series against the Atlanta Braves, and the Tampa Bay Devil Rays, with whom he reached 3,000 hits. <SEP> Manuel Arístides Ramírez Onelcida (born May 30, 1972) is a Dominican-American professional baseball outfielder for the Kōchi Fighting Dogs of the Shikoku Island League Plus.  He played in Major League Baseball (MLB) for parts of 19 seasons.  He played with the Cleveland Indians, Boston Red Sox, Los Angeles Dodgers, Chicago White Sox, and Tampa Bay Rays before playing one season in the Chinese Professional Baseball League.  Ramirez is recognized for having had great batting skill and power.  He was a nine-time Silver Slugger and was one of 25 players to hit 500 career home runs. His 21 grand slams are third all-time, and his 29 postseason home runs are the most in MLB history.  He appeared in 12 All-Star Games, with a streak of eleven consecutive games beginning in 1998 that included every season that he played with the Red Sox. <SEP> The 2013 Boston Red Sox season was the 113th season in the franchise's Major League Baseball history.  Under new manager John Farrell, the Red Sox finished first in the American League East with a record of 97 wins and 65 losses.  In the postseason, the Red Sox first defeated the AL wild card Tampa Bay Rays in the ALDS.  In the ALCS, the Red Sox defeated the American League Central champion Detroit Tigers in six games.  Advancing to the World Series, the Red Sox defeated the National League champion St. Louis Cardinals in six games, to capture the franchise's eighth championship overall and third in ten years.  The Red Sox became the second team to win the World Series the season after finishing last in their division; the first had been the 1991 Minnesota Twins.  Amazing postseasons offensively from David Ortiz and Jacoby Ellsbury helped lead the way along with great pitching from Jon Lester, John Lackey and Jake Peavy.
