Harden Claimed?

There’s a rumor that the Twins claimed Rich Harden off waivers and are trying to work a deal with the Cubs. With Harden pitching better lately, he could be the two or three game difference the Twins need to win the division.

Update: Andrew Kneeland writes that an NL team has put in a claim on Harden, probably the Rockies.

With Harden, the Rockies are scary-good and an instant threat to go deep in the postseason. This move could have a huge impact on the postseason. I love it for the Rockies, providing they can pull it off.

The Rockies staff is pretty good without Harden, but they’re very good with him.
