Around SBN: Four TCU Football Players Among 17 Arrested In Drug Ring

Odds that 2 Rangers slip through waivers

This has been covered in the past so I figure it was worthy of a new fanpost.  What are the odds that one or both of the Rangers sitting on the waiver wire get claimed?  I believe that Tejeda will get claimed because he's a live arm, and a pitching coach will take on the challenge of getting his control problems ironed out.  However, I have a hunch that Cruz will sneak through.  Tampa Bay seemed like they would be a match before trading for Nathan Haynes last week.  So what do you think?  Will Cruz and Tejeda start the season in AAA-OKC or in another Major League uniform?

Ha nice profile pic...

I don't see Cruz getting claimed. Tejeda will be traded but would be claimed.

Mets

Have the Mets added another OF? Last I heard, Alou and Delgado were battling injuries. Cruz could give Alou the occasional day off.

Could be right...

Although Cruz has been such an utter failure with the bat I don't see a team like the Mets claiming him.

What are you talking about?

Minaya would be a genius for buying so low on Cruz, right EHC?

If they get dealt at all,

I'm sure it will be for non-prospects that can help round out our minor league depth.

Why would anyone

want someone who could not make the Rangers?
