Ty Taubenheim and Josh Wilson, you guys!!!

You've probably already heard about yesterday's roster move, but I'd feel kind of remiss not talking about it at all. The Bucs DFA'd Brad Eldred and Brian Rogers and claimed Josh Wilson and Ty Taubenheim off of waivers from Tampa and Toronto, respectively.

Everything I read about Taubenheim makes it sound like he's a pretty interesting pick-up. At the very least, he's got to be more interesting than Brian Rogers. He's got some pretty solid strikeout/walk numbers in the minors, which means, what the hell, why not. Wilson is a different story. He sucks a lot. His major league numbers are really bad and his minor league numbers aren't really a whole lot better. I don't really know why we'd want him, but then again, it's not like there's really much of a point to keeping Brad Eldred around either.

If you want more reading, Vlad's got a post up about the two of them on Bucs Dugout and as usual WTM's already got pages up for both Taubenheim and Wilson. I agree with Vlad on these moves Huntington's making- they don't seem to amount to much, but at least he's trying. Every Jack Cust comes from somewhere and even if none of these guys are it, well, dropping the guys he's dropped from the roster isn't going to hurt us.
