Around SBN: Indy 500: 'Greatest Spectacle In Racing' Set For Sunday

Is this Bengie's last gasp? And why are the Rangers so in love with ex-Giants catchers? They did get him on the cheap though. Money quote:
"The Rangers addressed one of their offseason needs Monday when they signed free-agent catcher Yorvit Torrealba two a two-year, $6.25 million contract.."

Where does that leave the Pads? I don’t see any god in-house options. Maybe they go the ex-Rox route once again and sign Olivo?

I guess Rod Barajas would be a viable option too

Foyt?

Isn’t he a bit old? Although he is used to working from a sitting position.

I read somewhere that they like Hundley as full-time catcher going into next year.

Good

I hate Torrealba ever since he left the Giants. He hits 3 hrs a year, and they are all meaningful ones against the Giants (or so it seems at least.)

Uh-Oh

Do the Giants play the Rangers next year in interleague?

No, it’s an AL Central year.

The Rangers should be in the Central!

Don't be ridiculous

Houston is central, Arlington is west. Obviously the dividing line must be at 96 degrees west.

The Rangers...

Have nothing on the Rockies love of ex-Giants catchers.
