That sound you hear is 29 GMs laughing
The Antonio Perez/Jason Romano deal didn't seem to make much sense to anyone, except the D-Rays. Now we know why. (link via Leone for Third)
What are they doing down in St. Pete? Is anyone home? Apparently the team's chief scout could have sworn he saw Romano playing middle infield in spring, and no one bothered to double-check. When the Rays management see Romano is just your run-of-the-mill fifth outfielder they put him on wavers. I could have told them that Romano wasn't a middle-infielder for Christ's sake- and I didn't see any of Dodger's spring training.
The front office in Tampa Bay has all the skill of the Cincinnati Bangles, without the family vibe.
