Interesting ... Phil Klein optioned to Round Rock and Hanser Alberto activated. Elvis should hear the footsteps now.

That is extremely interesting. Wonder if there's a trade in the works for Elvis.

Doubt we get lucky, w a trade partner but who knows. If EA makes an error tonight, I will boo his ass!

Why bring Alberto up, though?

Hopefully so Banny will bench his little ass some, but I guess he could have done that with Field or Rosie too. Just another option off the bench, guess?

Me too. Elvis gets a pass from the home crowd to often.

I'm sitting close enough to the Rangers dugout to give him a swift kick in the butt if I need to

Bench has been short a guy for a while I think. They had an extra arm. it just evens it out.

Alberto is primarily a SS ... small number of games at 2b and 3b ... but he's a better option at 2b backup than is DeShields. I don't see Alberto as a long term UIF candidate.

Bet Alberto gets at least one start at SS this series if nothing more than to send a message to Elvis that he can be replaced. Alberto is batting over .300 for Round Rock with a .742 OPS.

Elvis has him blocked at this point ... with them both on the ML roster it is now show time.

Better backup SS than Rosales I would guess. They are probably going to be prepared to bench Elvis a little more often.
