BOSTON (AP) — The Texas Rangers have placed catcher Yorvit Torrealba on waivers Wednesday before their game against the Boston Red Sox.
Torrealba, who batted .236 with three homers and 12 RBIs in 45 games, was designated for assignment when Texas acquired catcher Geovany Soto from the Chicago Cubs on July 31.
He will become a free agent if he's not claimed on Friday.
