Saturday Random Post

Posted by Dan in Texas

Adam at Lonestar ball is reporting that Shouse has been traded to the Brewers.
"Just saw a newsflash from Jamey Newberg, saying that the Rangers have traded Brian Shouse to the Milwaukee Brewers for Enrique Cruz and a PTBNL."

Shouse has struggled a bit and now injured but, I really liked what he had as a LOOGY. I thing Daniels could/should have gotten more.


Ken Rosenthal reports:

Add the Rangers to the list of teams that will be interested if the Marlins decide to trade left-hander Dontrelle Willis, who, after winning 22 games last season, is 1-4 with a 6.22 ERA.

Yeah, this will happen, right after the Rangers sign Clemens and just before they trade Alfonseca to the A's for Barry Zito. Rosenthal is usually pretty good at trade rumors but this one is way off. I'm sure Willis' pitching woes can be cured by a trade to the ballpark.

Speaking of Alfonseca, I have to go as security is reporting a giant headed man attempting to bring in a package. More later.

Fellas, can your staff protect a 9-0 lead? I guess we have our answer. Sadly, I saw it coming across the proverbial George Washington Bridge, if not completely at 9-0 then at 10-3. Seen this script play out too many times.

It must be very hard to be a Texas Rangers fan. It's tough as hell to be a temporary sympathizer.
