Glad Tulo won't be a Yankee now they have DiDi.

That's interesting that the Yanks either had no interest in having him, or they didn't have anything to offer back the Rockies to meet their needs.

In any case, he's getting his just rewards, for now anyway.

Jon Morosi ‏@jonmorosi 5m5 minutes ago Sources: Rangers have spoken with Dodgers about Matt Kemp, joining Padres, Orioles, Mariners among Kemp suitors.

It makes since the Orioles will make every effort to get Kemp, since they have lost two outfielders to FA already.

If healthy Andrew Miller could be a good pick up for the Yankees. A 14.9 K/9, 2.5 BB/9 and 46.9% ground ball rate. 4 yrs 36 mill.

Don't quite understand the three way trade for them though. Getting rid of the starting pitcher for offensive challenged SS.

On the 3 way trade I can see your point. This was a separate deal.

Do I even want to ponder what it would take to net a package of Kemp/Grienke?

Obviously Elvis would HAVE to be included in that deal... just for money purposes.

Oh, I know. Miller was a good signing. Just my thoughts on their three way trade.

EA and Kemps contracts would kind of offset each other, but I just don't see the Rangers taking on 2 contracts of that size. I would be very interested, depending on the prospects involved.

I was wondering when the Yanks were talking about acquiring EA, what Shane Green would have cost us. He had some good starts towards the end of last season

Rough night for Rougned Odor | Dallas Morning News


I don't know what's going on in the field, but he better fix it before next year. I'm glad to see him batting .340 though.

Got me excited about June. Either guys picked for Texas are great, but come on Aiken!

I was actually hoping to get a stud power hitter that would only take a couple of years to reach the big leagues, but I will take a stud pitcher.

His BA is even higher after last night.

Jeff Banister says he's impressed with Yu Darvish - Dallas Texas Rangers Blog - ESPN Dallas

I am looking forward to seeing Darvish perform under a real manager. I really didn't like our chances of extending Yu if Wash would have stayed. If he likes Banister that could help encourage him to stay here longer.

So anyone interested in kemp?

Nope.

If we can get rid of Elvis for him, possibly.

 

[darrylgann]

So anyone interested in kemp?

Not if it stops us from getting a decent pitcher.

 

[scotsman1948]

So anyone interested in kemp?

only if they cough up a lot of money and don't ask for too much in prospects so that we can get the starter JD is looking for

 

[Justinkm83]

Mariners are showing increased interest in Melky.

Anyone notice that the defense on all of our DFW area teams are lacking? ALL
