First baseball player my Dad and I were both superfans of. Wish he was around to see this. Great day for Rangers fans everywhere. #retirenumber7

Pudge is the standard Rwnger catchers are judged by. A great career and at this point the greatest Rsnger ever which I hope changes

Pudge makes the hall of fame.

Congratulations to a great ball player, Pudge! I was so happy when I heard this!

Keith Law's rankings.

15. Texas Rangers

2016 rank: 9

The Rangers’ top 10 this year bears little resemblance to their top 10 from last year, as they promoted their first two guys, traded the next three and No. 10 as well. Prospect No. 9, Mike Matuella, made one appearance all year before getting hurt again.

So their system is no longer among the game’s strongest, which it’s been for most of the time I’ve been assembling these lists. Thanks to the team’s superaggressive approach in Latin America, they still have a lot of high-upside talent left in the system’s lower levels. Their top five prospects were all signed by the Rangers from Venezuela, the Dominican Republic or Panama. Only one other team has as many as four Latin American prospects in its top five.

There are still potential stars here, on both sides of the ball, but the Rangers aren’t likely to get much if any big league help from the system in the next two seasons.

A lot of words for a question that only has one answer.

Easy mistake, done it myself

Just fuck me!

I'm watching PTI and on ESPN and the subject of HOF comes up with Pudge as the face of it. Makes sense right?

So how much fucking sense does it make to show him in action in a Marlins uniform?

Darvish will be signing at fanfest. I'm pissed.
1st year in 3 or 4 years that I don't do the fastpass.......... (mainly b/c I have multiple duplicates).

C'est la vie.

the alumni list is better than I can remember.

I didn't get a fast pass this year because I'm headed to Spring Training, so I'm rolling the dice. glad to see Darvish signing there this year.
