    Wonder if they send Akeem in order to not have to offer Deshields back to the Astros.

    Nope. Akeem is not on 40 man roster.

    Not bad at all for a guy we were about to cut.

    My point was, could it be a wink wink deal, so when DeShields gets sent back to the minors, and the Rangers have to offer him back, the Astros work out a cash settlement so Rangers can keep him.

    Seems like a plus deal. I do like.

    No...

    If the Rangers have to offer him back, the Astros will either pay the $25K, or the Rangers will be sending more player(s) to the Astros to keep him.
