rangers trade thoughts........

[Xx srs bsns xX]

Well if the indications from JD are true (we are staying pat) this thread will be closed out very soon

not necessarily true... still have the whole month of August to go through.

Threw out an offer to an unnamed Rockies player. They immediately declined. He wouldn't tell me who, but he sent that an hour ago.

Hmmm seems the Rockies are as delusional as the phillies were.

Looks like Michael Young is on the move again. Not sure where.

Please not Texas, please not Texas, please not Texas.

Please not Texas, please not Texas, please not Texas.

I think we can all agree that there is a 100% chance that JD will not bring MY back.

Probably cargo

Could be cuddyer.

That last tweet should read, [URL="https://twitter.com/search?q=%23Phillies&src=hash"]#Phillies’ Michael Young only WILL approve trade to #Rangers. Left out a word. Again: Full no-trade clause.

 

[romeo212000]

Just saw that Young has batted into 18 DP's already this season... gag.

Michael Young » Statistics » Batting | FanGraphs Baseball

But that OBP is nice...
But the average with RISP is around his normal average.

He's better than what Berkman is offering... and I have a feeling later this week, we're going to need all the help we can get.

If the price is right - sure...why not.



That said, "just say no"

I'm actually a bit surprised why he would approve a trade only to Texas after how things ended here.

To rub it in JD's face that JD was wrong

Not sure where he is going to play here, unless he is finally resigned to playing strictly DH.

We already have guys grounding into too many DP's. no thanks.

Me too. I still don't want him.

JD would be the one bringing him back. I still say there's a less than 1% chance they bring him back.

"What people have been saying about Young all along is true: he’s a team player who cares only about making the Rangers better. Pity he plays for the Phillies at the moment, but let us not dwell on the details."

Shows he has no animosity towards the organization.

 

[darrylgann]

and it sounds like Rios strongly going to Pittsburgh.
