Transaction Oracle— A Timely Look at Transactions as They Happen

Red Sox - Claimed Denker
Boston Red Sox - Claimed IF Travis Denker off waivers from the San Diego Padres
The Red Sox picked up Denker mainly to add to some backup infielder depth that has been tested with Jed Lowrie and Julio Lugo being on the DL early on. The issues with Lowrie and Lugo aren’t expected to be worries past the short-term, so Denker may end up with another organization in the next couple of months. Denker’s not a bad guy to have around, but his usefulness to the Red Sox is limited at the moment with Gil Velazquez and Nick Green having played shortstop regularly.

1. Walt Davis Posted: April 15, 2009 at 06:58 PM (#3139476)The Padres gave this guy a 40-man roster spot, kept him there through the opening of the season, let him play one game (of minor-league ball?) then put him on waivers?

Luis Perdomo, actually.
A wrist problem that has lingered for over 8 months including the offseason should be expected to be a long term worry.
You're just a Nervous Nelly, I don't see Andy LaRoche having any problems.
