Around SBN: Jeremy Lin's Game-Winner Was Incredible, Worth Remembering

Rangers trade for Matt Treanor

Per the S-T, the Rangers have traded infielder Ray Olmedo to the Milwaukee Brewers for catcher Matt Treanor.

Treanor is a former Marlins backstop probably best known for being the husband of pro volleyball player Misty May-Treanor.  He's apparently insurance in case Jarrod Saltalamacchia isn't ready to go to start the season.

Neither Treanor nor Olmedo are on major league deals, so this doesn't impact the 40 man roster.

And I looked down and saw that I was still carrying David Eckstein.

Yes

Absolutely. And on several different planes of above-average, her appeal goes beyond raw looks. Something I really don’t think you can say for girls like Kardashian or Meagan Fox.

And that’s important for me for some reason – there’s a certain intangible factor that seems to enter into it for me and suffice to say Kim doesn’t have whatever the hell it is that trips my trigger.

From Sox Prospects

Though, he’s actually with the Blue Jays, now.

Scouting Report: Exceptional defensive player with a strong arm. Primarily plays shortstop but can also play second and third base. With the bat, Sanchez makes average contact and has doubles power. Good plate discipline. Average speed. Still has the potential to be a major league utility player, especially if he is able to repeat his offensive success from 2009.
