Minor deal

[gunderdood.livejournal.com]

Tigs to trade OF Michael Hernandez to Rangers for RHP Armando Galarraga, a TJ survivor. He has an option and will be going to Triple A. (FREEP)

Minor trade, but at least does something to give us something more in the pitching staff, even if it's merely to add depth if not great numbers or experience.
