Sounds like it is RicRod. From Newberg though....
Evan Grant of the Dallas Morning News is reporting that the player to be
named later in the trade Texas made today to acquire Philadelphia
righthander Vicente Padilla will be a minor leaguer not currently on the
40-man roster, and he will be identified within the week. T.R. Sullivan of
the Fort Worth Star-Telegram reports, however, that the Phillies have a list
of players to choose from, one of whom is righthander Ricardo Rodriguez.
I suppose it's possible that Rodriguez was quietly designated for assignment
in the last few days, meaning he'd be off the 40-man roster, but otherwise
we have a discrepancy in stories.
More in tomorrow morning's Newberg Report.
