One of the coolest names in baseball was quietly traded to the Red Sox last week. Jarrod Saltalamacchia went from the Rangers Triple-A affiliate to the Red Sox Triple-A affiliate. According to a report, Salty got a case of the "yips," which basically means he forgot how to throw the ball 60 feet back to the pitcher.
Before the Sox acquired Saltalamacchia, they were reportedly deep into the Rube Baker trade talks before the Indians finally clued them in on the fact that Rube was just a character from the 1994 movie Major League 2.
