Red Sox Retain Rights to Indy Leaguer Rodriguez 10.29.09 at 3:56 pm ET
By Alex Speier

According to a major-league source, the MLB Commissioner’s Office has ruled that the Red Sox still possess the rights to Reynaldo Rodriguez, a first baseman whom they acquired from the Yuma Scorpions of the independent Golden Baseball League earlier this month.

There had been some confusion as to whether Rodriguez remained Red Sox property after a report that the Royals had acquired him. The Royals had indeed filed a transaction stating that they had reached an agreement with the 22-year-old, who is currently playing in the Colombian Winter League, though it had not been approved by MLB.

After reviewing the case, however, the Commissioner’s Office found that the Sox had gone through the proper channels in purchasing Rodriguez’ rights from the Golden Baseball League. Because the GBL had already picked up the 2010 option on Rodriguez’ deal after he hit .335/.380/.486 for the Scorpions, a team could only acquire his rights by purchasing his contract from the League, as the Sox did. Moreover, the player informed the club that he had not come to an agreement with the Royals.

The Sox will follow Rodriguez this winter in Colombia, and then let him compete for a spot on one of their minor-league affiliates in spring training. For a scouting report on the former Yankees minor leaguer, click here.

    But beware! If a single supplier does not stock each and every item you’d like, and you are organizing to mix and match your oak bathroom furniture, be extremely cautious to deliberately acquire contrasting oak pieces, or take samples with you from one supplier to the next – oak is really a natural material and even veneered goods vary in their grain and colour tone. You cannot, as with straightforward white bathroom furniture, but a few pieces from various suppliers and anticipate that they’ll match up – but with a bit of care, you are able to guarantee your new pieces do all complement each other, and complement your space as a complete.
