Steve "The Human Rain Delay" Traschel could have slowed down major league baseball for the last time. The Baltimore Orioles have DFA’d him, following what could be described as a poor start to the season.

For the year, Trax is 2-5 with a ERA of 8.39, spread over 10 games. Trax got rocked hard and knocked out early frequently, including 9 earned runs in less than two innings against the Rays, and a six run, three inning game against the Angels.

In six years with the Mets, Trax went 66-59, with a 4.09 ERA. Trax often benefited from a large amount of run support, and is best known for his slow delivery. That being said, he ate innings, going over 200 twice in his six years with the team.

New fifth starter anyone?
