39yo RH reliever Matt Herges

release by the Indians yesterday. He might be a nice arm to sign to a minor league contract. However, he will probably be offered a major league contract by someone. He put up some good #s for Cleveland and appears to have been released due to a roster crunch after someone was activated from the DL. His ave FIP the last 3 years is about 3.95 with a 3.78 this year. His stat line in 09: 21g/25ip/24h/3hr/6bb/18so.

Considering TX is unwilling to add significant payroll for the remainder of the year, you figure that they will be willing to sign anyone for the vet minimum who has had some success this year(see El Duque).
