what a way to fuck yourself out of a leadoff double.

I don't see how it could affect future free agents. It isn't like we would be doing him a disservice. As far as trade partners go I don't see how they would care at all.

For one thing, we could be a team which might appear on other players "teams I cannot be traded too". Right now, I'm not sure we're a destination location, but at the same time, it seems that many players/teams think Texas is a good place to call home.

And it doesn't matter if we aren't doing him a disservice or not. If it's a perceived slight, then it's real.

It seems Beltre is one of the most respected players in the game, and if he's upset, that doesn't bode well for the organization.

Nice throw from DeShields.

Cole's value is on the downside tonight

Well, he was due a game like this after the last few. Just hope our relievers are up to it tonight. Cole probably good for one more inning.

Chirinos pretty much wilted when the spotlight got brighter.

Hope the offense won't make him look bad

Welp......

There's no sugar coating it.... This team just got skull fucked by a really bad team, swept in a 4 game series, totally dominated. JD needs to be on the phone every minute he can until August 1st.

Can't be looking desperate. He needs to acknowledge the state of this team though and do the right thing. He'll know how to handle the market.

Sell JD just sell.

We will have to disagree then.

Also, I don't see him being that upset if we trade him to a place where he can win a championship. He isn't going to win one here this year or next.

Exactly. He has been a seller before and knows how to handle it.
