Mench Designated For Assignment

Mench was officially DFA'd this morning to make room on the 40 for Torres.  I'm assuming this means he'll just be released.  If I understand his contract status and the DFA rules correctly, the only other logical possibility would be that another team might be interested in trading some peanuts to us for his arbitration rights.  That way, an interested team may be able to get him at a discounted rate rather than at a free agent price.

In any case, I doubt he'll be missed much in Milwaukee.  No word on who the other victim will be when the time comes to make room for Gagne.

Here's the link.
