<div class='quotetop'>QUOTE (CHRISTOPHER SHERMAN @ Associated Press Writer)</div><div class='quotemain'>McALLEN, Texas (AP)—During three years in the low minors, John Odom never really made a name for himself. That sure changed this week—he’s the guy who was traded for a bunch of bats.
“I don’t really care,” he said Friday. “It’ll make a better story if I make it to the big leagues.”
For now, Odom is headed to the Laredo Broncos of the United League. They got him Tuesday from the Calgary Vipers of the Golden Baseball League for a most unlikely price: 10 Prairie Sticks Maple Bats, double-dipped black, 34-inch, C243 style.
“They just wanted some bats, good bats—maple bats,” Broncos general manager Jose Melendez said.</div>
