Former Ranger David Dellucci signs with Toronto


David Dellucci a.k.a. "The Godfather" was a fan favorite in Arlington and has been in Cleveland since 2007 but was cut on May 29. The Blue Jays are planning to use him as their 4th outfielder. This year he was hitting .275 in only 14 games for Cleveland.

Other Notes:

I made the trip to the Ranger game tonight only to wait out a 2 hour delay to be told the game was postponed. I now know what is worse than a Ranger loss: the Rangers not playing at all! The trip home was only made better by the fact that the Angels lost to the Rays tonight. Now the wife and I will have to work out our schedules and mail in tonight's tickets in order to see another game down the road.

Other Relevant News:

Kris Benson accepted his assignment to AAA Oklahoma City hoping that he can prove that he deserves a spot in the rotation. My 2 cents: He is not worth a minor league spot in the rotation at this point.

Rangers drafted a familiar name in the 6th round today: Ruben Sierra Jr.
He is very athletic but has only raw talent at this point. Nobody knows if he will be as good as his father, but Rangers fans can only hope.

Any predictions for tomorrow's game with Millwood starting?
