Rangers release Sandy Leon

Perales
On Monday, it was announced that catcher Sandy Leon had cleared waivers and approved an outright project to AAA Round Rock.  That was good information for the Rangers, as it supplied them with added catching deepness in the Wednesday, it was announced that Leon had asked for, and been provided, his launch by the Rangers.  So, that's not so great news. I'm not exactly sure what took place during.  Initially I believed that the Boston Red Sox shedding catcher Reese McGuire to an injury may have activated this, since Leon spent a lot of his job with Boston, and perhaps there was the possibility of him being signed to a big league deal by Boston https://www.bostonredapparelstore.com.  Yet Leon's launch was announced before the McGuire injury, to ensure that wouldn't be was changed on the energetic lineup by Sam Huff, that, in eight video games because being phoned, has actually appeared once as a protective substitute for Mitch Garver in the 7th inning of Sunday's video game against the Blue Jays, right after the Jays took two bases the previous inning off of Garver, with Garver having a throwing error on one of the swiped bases.  The decision to bring up Huff seemed odd because it really did not seem like he was playing all right in AAA to have forced the Rangers to get him up and get him playing time, and it really did not appear like there was an obvious course for him to get playing time anyway.  As it transforms out, there hasn't been playing time for Rangers did clear a 40 man roster place by going down Leon and replacing him with Huff, though that place hasn't been loaded as of yet.  It will certainly one way or another Glenn Otto is on a rehab job and will certainly be taken off the 60 day injured list soon, and Texas may add another person before that anyway yet it wasn't such as the action was precipitated by an instant demand to include somebody to the 40 will likely be sent down when Brad Miller is triggered from the damaged listing, unless then Rangers assign Miller for job, in which case there will be 2 open spots on the 40 man roster.  So that knows.
