While DDJ should've caught that, it was one of those lasers not quite right at you and then tailed off behind him, it was a much tougher catch than most on this board are willing to acknowledge
So it was a “rope” to CF?

On rehab, Gallo was 1-3 with a HR and a walk while playing CF.

A sellers market.

Something can be said about that. Guzman no doubt has saved them once or twice.
We saw what happened just in the 9th inning in the game 2 nights ago with Forsythe at 1st and he is better at that position than Santana.

Unless they all do what you want the Rangers to do. Hahaha
Logically, if someone thinks the Rangers should not be sellers, then they have to think others will not be as well. It is illogical to think the Rangers will buy or stand pat and those other WC chasers will not.

To me, it doesn't matter whetherbot is a buyer's market or a seller's market, we still need to do what we need to do.

For those who do think it matters what kind of a market it is, I do think they should be consistent and logical.

EVan G thinks Cabrera may be on the bubble

I think it all depends upon the return. Sometimes wise to either buy or sell early or wait. A lot of factors. With as many teams content to tank. This sometimes favors the buyer.

Ice cold hitter right now and defense does not measure up stat wise. Opens up Forsythe and Santana some. Got to figure out who gets ABs.... this series will perhaps reveal a bit. Also have guys in minors that might deserve a look see

Hard to calculate moves until the trade dead line is here. Would be a good time to move Cabrera . He did a good job filling in til we land the right guy.

There are only a handful of awful teams, 6 or 7. I doubt all of them have quality to trade. We certainly do have quality to trade.

The idea, that it depends on the return, for someone struggling like Darvish had been, is appropriate. The return for Mike Minor should be significant no matter what, so that caveat is a non-factor.

Evsn thought Gallo would be too fragile to play in the field too. Evan has some crazy ideas sometimes. One of these days the proverbial blind hog is going to find an acorn.
