Dodgers reassigned INF Brian Barden, OF Jeremy Moore and INF/OF Omar Luna to minor league camp. | ||||||
No surprises here. Barden batted a robust .478/.538/.565 this spring, but he was never a real Opening Day roster candidate. | ||||||

Brian Barden has signed a contract with the Hiroshima Carp of Nippon Professional Baseball. | ||||||
Barden opted out of his minor league pact with the Rangers on July 1 after batting .357/.403/.556 in 232 plate appearances at Triple-A Round Rock but failing to earn a promotion to the major leagues. The 30-year-old infielder should do well overseas. | ||||||

Rangers signed infielder Brian Barden to a minor league contract. | ||||||
Barden spent half of last season on the Marlins' roster, but he received just 28 at-bats as the team's 25th man. He plays a solid shortstop and a very good third base, but with his bat, he's probably never going to be more than the last guy on a bench. | ||||||
