MLB Trade Rumors reports we're putting out feelers about Andrus, Rios, Soria, Beltre, and get this....Darvish. I guess we can always listen...someone wants to give us the farm for him (i.e Texeira)!!! But we need to be really careful here. This years sucks, but we are not the Cubs, we are playing this year for 2015, not five years from now!!!

I understand thinking about moving Rios (reluctantly) and Andrus (acceptable). But Choice has not proven he's ready for prime time, and we have no idea if Profar is equal to the hype. But Odor's play has given us options on Andrus (Profar moves back to SS), and I think Andrus' career could use a change of scenery. His play is so damn inconsistent and often uninspired, IMO.

Last point, Cards are looking for a 2B. Sardinas for one of their infinite pitching prospects? I like Sardinas, but he appears to be odd man out when Profar returns...OR, consider trading Profar for one of their starters (Kelly, Miller?). But I may placing too much value on Profar given he's been out now all year...

This is total speculation and not at all what was stated in the article. These names were only listed, mostly by Evan Grant after the fact, as possible trade pieces in the event that Daniels decides to deal at the deadline.

Like I said....click-bait.

Just a matter of time, the hope was Snyder would've played better, but he didn't

We all knew this was coming when they signed Pena. It's tough trying to learn a new position and trying for the most part do it in the Big Leagues.

Pday......well sure....if they blow the doors off. Isn't that true of any player?.... and how does one define blow the doors off? That's not a hand full of prospects with high grades like the trade with Atlanta. It's not the same for two more years...if that

(First) I've said on here since my very first post anyone/everyone can be had at a price. Price TBD.
(Second) Blowing the doors off, is up to the buyer and seller. Sorry to be so nebulous. If either party says "I can't walk away from this deal, regardless of whom we're dealing, the so be it."
(Third) Why the magic number of 2 more years?

Lastly, I followed this team since my arrival in DFW, 1980.

"Again, I'm not making a suggestion of trading him. But if someone blows the doors off, you gotta listen. Pulling the trigger is now up to us, and maybe a whole different matter"

shoot.....some of the most active posters on this board would trade every asset this team had assembled. Did any of you follow this team before Ryan, JD and Washington?

I haven't seen any poster say let's trade every asset. I've seen different posters more willing to trade certain assets though.

I've been a fan since I was 5, which was 88. I just about every game growing up. I enjoyed watching sports rather than other crap on TV.

The game will most likely be cancelled. Rain projected all evening. Posting for anyone not in the area.

I'm in Gun Barrel City and it started raining about 40 minutes ago and it's coming down.

I was in Dallas this past WE and checked the paper on YTD rain fall, and I swear, we've had more rain this month to the east (1 1/2 hours - 8/9+ inches) this month than y'all have had all year.

Cedar Creek Lake has been on the rise for 2 months now.....not to be confused with full.

I'm SW of Dallas and had a lot less than Dallas/Ft.W.
