Dodgers will not be taking on as much of the money as people think. The Red Sox will be sending a boat load of cash along with the other players. Crawford is being paid by an insurance company currently and will not be paid by the Dodgers until he actually plays for them.
This trade will clean up the Sox (if they get rid of Valentine) and make room for some improvement.
The Dodgers will get help at first and a another serviceable(hopefully) starter this year...and Crawford can help out in the outfield next year. Should be interesting how this all works out in the next few years.

And you have to like the Dodgers chances in the NL West now with A-Gone replacing Loney and with the Giants losing Melky for the remainder of the season. As a Sox fan, I was hoping they would eat Lackey's contract as well! We'd even through in Dice-K
