The Texas Rangers got quite the return in exchange for reliever Ernesto Frieri — enough to buy two tacos from their local Jack In The Box.
According to a report by the Associated Press on Tuesday, the Rangers traded the right-hander Frieri to the Seattle Mariners for the whopping sum of $1.
The 32-year-old Frieri had gone 0-1 with a 5.14 ERA in six appearances for Texas this season before being demoted to the minor leagues. He is being assigned by Seattle to Triple-A Tacoma of the Pacific Coast League.
Frieri is an eight-year MLB veteran, but that’s easily the most disrespectful compensation we’ve seen since Reggie Bush (and that wasn’t even real life).
