rangers claim Jeff Beliveau

@CarrieMuskat: #Rangers claim Jeff Beliveau off waivers. #Cubs

[terencem]

So he slipped by 24-25 teams? I guess they have a history of claiming anyone useful, though.

[Tryptamine]

Still not sure why he was the one they decided to dfa when there were probably half a dozen others I would have gotten rid of first.

[KyleJRM]

That's really annoying. There are like half-a-dozen guys on the 40-man worse than he is.

[gocubs2118]

Giants claimed Rosario today as well.

[SenorGato]

It has to be said that for such a talentless, useless pool left over by the previous group a quality organization like the Rangers doesnt seem to mind having our scrap. It can probably be said better than that.

Not a fan of losing Beliveau either as I had hope he might become the LH David Robertson. Oh well.

Agreed. Especially the likes of Rusin and Raley. Neither have big league futures, IMO.

[CUBluejays]

Rusin can't be DFA'd.

[gocubs2118]

Concepcion cleared waivers.

[Tryptamine]

Concepcion cleared waivers.

Can we go back in time and give that 7M to Cespedes?

[hrubes20]

Rusin can't be DFA'd.

I forgot about that. Actually he CAN be DFA'd, just not until 20 days before opening day.

[WOwolfOL]

That definitely sucks, could've been avoided.

[RedHeadsRule]

I'm going to assume JP Howell will be a Cub in 2013.

Maybe they can give Scotty Kazmir an invite to ST. He's been pitching well in winter league and might be able to re invent himself as a LOOGY

Just signed with the Indians.
