Series Thread: En Fuego Rangers vs Default Division Winners

[scotsman1948]

Your idea requires a budget that is much larger than what JD's budget has looked like the past couple of seasons. That is the kind of budget I wanted a year ago when I suggested they go after McCann, Cruz and/or Napoli, and Abreu. JD said almost a year ago on Norm's show that he could go to the owners and ask to increase the budget if he wanted to, but he didn't see any available free agents worth doing so. He then added that he didn't see any in next year's class worth doing so either. So I think we are stuck with this budget for at least another offseason.

It is just hard to rebuild the way you want to this offseason and the way I wanted to last offseason with JD's budget.

do we know what his budget is? i know i don't.

I don't know Scottie but my guess is it won't be revealed.

Well.....I don't think romeo can be counted on since his beloved Sooners are in a dogfight with W Virginia and are tied at the half.

And it is a dog fight.

i agree, we can't assumed anything about their plans so we could see them do very little on the FA market or we could see them go big time

Elvis and martin both screwed that up and thats hard to do

That's right but from a conservative view point, if we could get a#3 pitcher and one cof bat we could capture a WC next year.

Elvis pack your bags before Les finds out what you just did.

He just doesn't do well against this team.

Trade him to the Mets..they need a SS and maybe they'll overpay....but to move him, we're eating a bunch of that contract. May be worth it...and I can say that because it isn't my money...

Gonna be tough to ever move him.

 

[Bmurph]

EA is getting good at it.

Yeah he is, it seems as if its nightly almost

Beltre walking over and giving the little boy who was injured by a foul ball, a bat ,is a special person.
Quality individual

That brings his DWAR below the -0.5 he started with going into tonight.

Damn It boy.

 

[Bmurph]

He just doesn't do well against this team.

Especially when defense gives away outs
