I thought we traded Luke Jackson.

We did and I was glad

I thought we traded Luke Jackson.

I think he made his list several weeks ago so that it could be included in his book that was released last month.

If we sign Tyson Ross I guess that is the end of the line for Colby being a Ranger barring a trade.

Beat me to the news, Bennie! At least it's something.

Rangers Aggressively Pursuing Tyson Ross
January 4th, 2017 at 4:00pm CST • By Steve Adams
4:00pm: Ross is visiting the Rangers today,tweets Jon Heyman of FanRag Sports. Per Heyman, Ross is still choosing among six potential suitors, though he’s getting closer to making a decision.

3:54pm: Evan Grant of the Dallas Morning News tweets that Ross’ asking price has dropped since the Winter Meetings, and talks are indeed advancing between Ross’ camp and the Rangers.

That will be sad if it comes true. But I wouldn't rule it out entirely if we sign Ross.

Ross talks "heating up", and the Napoli news was "hot" on Dec. 20th, mostly media clamoring for hits it appears

I would likely rather have Colby in the rotation than Cashner but guess that isn't an option, considering their guarantee to Andrew

Cubs are involved for Ross.
