Well, we all knew that Kinsler, Andrus, and Profar weren't all coming back. Was hoping to get premium pitching back in a package deal for one of those three. Obviously Fielder is an upgrade over Moreland. Still hoping for a frontline starter.

Gonna miss Kinsler's leadership, not his pop-ups.

Texas has lots of pitching. This was a move Texas needed to make badly.

I wonder if those are the only two players being exchanged.

fielder vastly overrated. I like the deal for DET. probably means Andrus won,t be Cards SS in 2014 now.

He didn't have as good a year last year as he had the previous two years, but he has had some pretty big seasons.

I haven't seen anything about that. Not sure about Porcello. He seems to be very streaky, even more so than most SPs.

First had a slight down year last year, but in his previous two seasons put up 4.8 and 4.9 FWAR. I'd say the rangers valued him about right.

He'd be a great throw in.

So you know what this means? Moreno is probably about to give Cano 30 mil a year to come to Anaheim.
Moreno always tries to 1-up the Rangers.

Hadn't thought of that, but you may be right. Problem is, it doesn't solve their problems at all. They need pitching in the worst way and there's just not much out there.

Texas seems like a great place for Fielder. He was very easy to be a fan of in Detroit. Wish him nothing but the best with the Rangers.

Package Profar for Price. Sign Cano. What do you think?

We don't need Price and we certainly don't need Cano for that money. Cano will end up signing in NY I think.

Same goes for Ian. You guys will love him. Just remember to check what his stats say he's actually contributing when he hits a few pop ups.
