The Womack Dividend

Multiple sources are reporting that the Cubs have acquired Phil Nevin in exchange for Jerry Hairston and cash.

So, the Rangers paid off the Cubs and took Hairston in exchange for a player they just benched. Looks like Jim Hendry is living up to his good reputation for ripping off teams who are in dire straights.

On the plus side, Todd Walker can return now to second base. Another plus is that Jacque Jones now has a platoon partner in right field.

On the minus side, that partner is Tony Womack.

Eeee, eee!
