"Is that a roll of quarters in your pocket ..."

File this under "Who Gives A Shit?": The Rangers acquired righty Tim Wood from the Pittsburgh Pirates for cash and a PTBNL.



Wood was 0-3 with a 5.63 ERA with the Pirates. Guess what?! He dominated Triple A: 23 saves, 2.84 ERA. He's clearly awesome.



Wood, I guess, gives the Rangers a little depth (see: players with a pulse) in the upper levels of the minors. Meaning, in a pinch, he's at least pitch in the Majors. Ryan Tucker, Brett Tomko and the bums at Round Rock apparently are not be trusted.



My favorite note on Wood: He's been released by the Washington Nationals and Pittsburgh Pirates in the same season.



Oddly, Rangers media types seem to think this matters. No way he's any good.



Watch him turn into Darren O'Day.
