I thought I read that no one claimed him and he was outrighted to Tacoma? Bizarre, no big loss though. I guess that’s the end of the M’s Arthur Rhodes connection.

MLB.com Transactions page jumped the gun on that last night.

Gaby Hernandez is going to be a star I’m telling you guys. He had a rough ’09 in Tacoma but watch we will see him in a year or two.

“The Red Sox claiming Hernandez means all but a handful of MLB clubs passed on him.”
Not to nitpick, but wouldnt it mean all but a handful of “American League” teams passed on him? Doesnt the process first offer him to the league he is in (order being opposite standings) then to the other league? (or am I having a brain-fart here?)

I believe only trade waivers are league-specific, and outright waivers are not.

I surprised no one wanted Petit. He showed promise with the D’backs. High K rate at least.

All former Mets prospects, if you throw in Jacobs thats 4 players drafted and/or signed by the Mets that are near AAAA rated players. I guess Omar giving up 7 players Heilman, Chavez & Smith Plus 4 prospects (Carerra, Vargas, Carp & Cleto) for essentially Sean Green was a fair trade.

The Mets need new ownership, gm, mgr, scouting Dept and philosophy Pay ABOVE SLOT! Former MetFan Who Is Waiting Out New Ownership.

Always liked Gaby Hernandez… thought he had a bright future. Hopefully he still will. If nothing else, hes a better guy to have in Pawtucket than having to give Billy Traber starts.
