Series Thread: Rangers Travel to Houston for Three Games with the Astros July 24-26

Probably does. Just have to find a team that could use him and willing to give up a prospect or 2. Any suggestions

Why didn't the Dodgers want him?

He might be considered as a bench player because he is a switch hitter. Just a guess.

No, not really.

No, not really.

If they could find a trade partner for him I would have no problem with it but I doubt they’ll find one. And right now they’ve no reason to release him

This is how they compare as far as hitting goes. What I don't know is what kind of a fielder Kike Hernandez is. Grossman is 2 years older

Just brought it up because maybe it means if we do trade for an outfielder, maybe someone would be willing to take Grossman off our hands. Or, maybe the Dodgers were the only team in that market.

Grossman .222/.287/.360/.657
Hernandez .222/.279/.320/.599

From Evan Grant:

Having taken a look at Alex Speas, the Rangers sent the right-hander back to Triple-A Tuesday with simple instructions:

Use the fastball more often.

But throw it for strikes.

I really hate this. Mark is a great beat reporter who has covered our Hickory Crawdads for several years.

Re local sports reporting. I have a paid subscription to the Athletic thru the year.
With the layoffs of local writers I think I won’t renew

5 pitch top of the 1st

 

[DT LUNA]

No idea how this game is going to go with our pitching.

Rodriguez had a good 1st

Rediculous. Making it easy for France.

 

[Senator_fan]

Nice hitting by Garcia.

 

[DT LUNA]

Jung guessing at the pitch. K

 

[Senator_fan]

Jankowski with the great catch or else that inning goes into the toilet.

 

[scotsman1948]

Jankowski makes another highlight catch

 

[scotsman1948]

Rangers must have an early dinner reservation just about everyone of them is going after the 1st pitch

 

[scotsman1948]

France should be able to go the full 9 easily

 

[DT LUNA]

Bradford continues keeping us in the game.
