No info available on what we traded. Mckenry is in the lineup tonight.

the Pirates have acquired catcher Mike McKenry from the Red Sox. McKenry, 26, is hitting .274/.369/.421 for Class AAA Pawtucket, and he hit .265/.328/.424 last year for Class AAA Colorado Springs, which is a great place for hitters. He's supposed to be strong defensively, so there's that, and he's probably slightly more likely to hit than Dusty Brown or Wyatt Toregas.

The Bucs will give up cash or a PTBNL. They have designated Toregas for assignment.

And I have to say....gooooo Boston Bruins game 6 tonight of the Stanley Cup playoffs. Safer to say it here then in the hockey thread. Too many Canadians there rooting for Vancouver for win their first ever cup. Shhhhhh.
