Marlins Release Matt Treanor
According to Joe Frisaro of MLB.com, the Marlins released catcher Matt Treanor. It made sense to do it now rather than Friday, to create roster space for a possible Rule 5 pick.
Treanor, 33 in March, hit .238/.306/.301 in 234 plate appearances this year. The Orioles were linked to him yesterday.

treanor was never that good anyways. he was a decent defensive catcher, but when it came to hitting, he seemed to suck. I liked the guy, but i think that the marlins made a great decision. i think that they are trying to get pudge for a fraction of what they paid in 2003 (10 mil in 2003. hopefully he will still be a free agent by january). im thinking that he can make at most $5.5 million next year, that's something the marlins can afford.
