July 23-26 A's vs Rangers

Cashner was an example of a pitcher that we brought in who had been very bad just before we acquired him.

Cashner actually did well here. Not too many pitchers do. For that reason, I was hoping we’d resign him.

JD chose Moore instead I guess

Is Ryan Rua the first player to get an outfield assist from 2 different positions and strike out a batter in one game? lol

I would say that would be very likely

I was thinking about IKF the other day. He is an amazing player. He did a really good job at 3B and now here he is playing catcher and he just does not seem to miss a beat. Has a very good baseball IQ.

A couple of relievers would give them a nice boost.

I would want a very good return for Leclerc.

I wonder how much Odor's trade value has increased and how much more it increases if he continues hitting for the rest of the year.

Rangers minor-league report (7-23): Hickory right-hander keeps throwing strikes

HOLY SHIT

 

[WastinSomeTime]

HOLY SHIT

Yikes. They don't mind picking on the little guy. Leaving the big guy in LF alone. HA! Interesting.

I think we would want a really good return on both. In fact we may do better adding a couple pieces to them with each one going to a different team which I am sure is what JD would do.

DeShields just hasn't hit. Not surprising that they would send him down.

And yet, we are keeping Tocci

He needs a reboot, he's been scuttling for a while,

But why not do the the same with Odor before when he was struggling even worse? Seems hypocritical, the only difference between the 2 is the contract

Rule V, the only reason, they stuck with him this long, they're not just going to give him up now
