The Texas Rangers picked up the popular David Rollins, a left-handed reliever, on a $20,000 waiver claim for the second time in a month on Wednesday.
Rollins had been designated by assignment by Philadelphia, which acquired him on waivers from the Rangers on Dec. 2. Rollins has been claimed four times since Nov. 18, going from Seattle to the Chicago Cubs, to the Rangers, to Philadelphia and back to the Rangers.
The Rangers have done this before. They claimed infielder Adam Rosales from Oakland on waivers twice in the first two weeks of August, 2013.
Rollins, 27, made 31 relief appearances with Seattle over the last two seasons.
