It's almost too good to be true. Somebody pitch me. Our farm system just got awfully good, and with Salty and Gabbard ready right now, this is just cake.

3 pitchers for Tex, that's what the fuck i'm talking about. if just one of those guys pans out, this is a successful trade.

If the Braves win the Series, it's worth it.

Yeah, the amount of lefties is great. I am very encouraged by the moves. Maybe we didn't get better right away but it's like the team took one step back to take two steps forward. Maybe three.

haha how did it take so freakin long to learn that lefty ground ball pitchers are the best guys to have when you play in the Arlington Wind Tunnel?

man, i'm giddy....i've got alot of hope for this thing again. and now there's no John Hart to fuck it all up. Hopefully Daniels is finally figuring things out.

BY FAR Daniels finest 24 hours with the Rangers

Props to Daniels. If I were a Rangers fan, I'd buy him a case of Mountain Dew and Funyuns.

I admit, I was worried when they were taking so long to trade Tex. I thought he might negotiate himself out of the deal. But shit, he traded him in just enough time to open the trade floodgates for everyone else. It's like all of baseball was holding their breath to see what they did with Tex, and then the trades happened.

Maybe I'll stop throwing up in my mouth every time I see John Danks on the mound in a White Sox jersey instead.

Yeah, I will try to forget about the absolute disaster he made with Young and Gonzo.

Beau Might or might not be big league talent, but he is good right now.

This deal looks exactly the one between the Brewers and Diamondbacks a few years back when Sexson was traded

Gabbard gets the start tomorrow night in place of Wright. Let's see what he's got against a good Indians lineup.

From what I'm hearing, Gabbard really isn't a great prospect, but he pitched very well so far this year so the Sox "sold high"....but they're projecting him to be a solid 5th starter, and a solid 5th starter for any other team is probably a #3 for Texas.

knowing the Rangers, they will trade all these guys for Frank Thomas or something
