Brett Eibner was designated for assignment by the Oakland Athletics. Hopefully he will clear waivers so he can sign with any team. I would suspect there are teams that could use him but he would probably start the year in the minors.
That article says that Eibner is from San Diego. He is from The Woodlands, TX.
He was born in San Diego and moved to Houston some time before high school.
I learned this week that Zack Cox was signed by the Tigers and will start minor league camp in a few weeks. He started last season in the Nationals program, but had to be cut because of the strange signing system of the Rule 5 draft. He spent the summer on an independent team in Wichita, Kan.
