Kinsler is fine.
Relax guys, I have a few moves that I have already decided to make to ensure success once I buy the team.
1. I'm gonna trade Josh Hamilton for Corey Patterson.
Corey was a top pick and he's gonna pan out sooner or later while Hamilton hasn't proved anything in this league.
2. Let Cliff Lee walk and bring back Sidney Ponson
Sidney Ponson was 5-0 against the Angels. 'Nuff said
3. Trade Young, Kinsler, Cruz, and Andruz for Sammy Sosa
This is a steal imo. Sosa's bat was the lone bright spot while he was here. While all four of those guys are decent players, combined I don't think they bring what Sammy brings
Kinsler is fine.
No kidding......
Cuban owning the Rangers would be gut wrenching.
...for Spurs fans.
But honestly, as much as I like Cuban and know that he would bring plenty of $$$ with him to the team, I'd still much rather have Nolan be the guy. It would suck so much to see him go.
I want cuban to focus on the mavs
Terribly gut wrenching....for Spurs fans.

Im scared of him bringing his interference to the Rangers as he did and does with the Mavericks.
Financial guy on 105.3 thinks Cuban will win the bidding easily because Greenburgh has no financial backing.
oh god, not Harden. Pretty much a lateral move IMO.
Well that's it, now our team is owned by Mark freaking Cuban.
So much for Cuban's bull that he just wanted to help Ryan and Greenburg get the process through, as soon as the deal was struck by Greenburg Cuban's lawyers went ape .
Two faced mother er.
Listening to the financial guy on 105.3 today though, Cuban would be best for the LT health of the team. Greenburgh has no money its all backers.
Cuban obviously is loaded beyond belief.
So if Cuban gets the team and can get Ryan and Daniels to stay and stays out of their business, then IMO thats the best move for all.
Also, for everyone wanting Davis gone, remember guys like Nelson Cruz and Ryan Ludwick.
Cruz didn't start clicking till 28. Ludwick till he was finally healthy two years ago.
Davis is a DAMN good DAMN good defensive first baseman, and IMO, they should be prudent to NOT trade him unless its part of something for a very good player..

Yeah I'd hate to lose Davis because of what he brings defensively. If he was average at best, I'd have no problem never seeing him again.
Also, Cuban being owner would give us a better chance of re-signing Cliff Lee. And I know all of us would love to see that happen.
Yeah I think getting Cuban finally puts them into the echelon they should be.
The echelon of higher paying teams due to their market. For far too long and people have pointed this out I agree, they've operated under a small market idea when they reside in one of the BIGGEST cities in america.
If Cuban got fast tracked, he could afford to keep Cruz, Hambone Lee and others around.
The financial analyst also pointed out Greenburgh's way of running the team would be on they would need to "turn a profit" yeah, in other words unless they sell out they are gonna be the Marlins.
Give me Cuban.
Seriously? What has Cuban ever done to suggest that he is at all willing to lay down a load of money for the team then just turn it over to JD and Nolan? He's a Jerry Jones type personality and he will be running everything and calling all the shots. All trades, drafts, FAs, player personnel, managerial personnel will be decided by him. Chances are he will do the same knee jerk trades and player moves that he did to up the Mavs the last 4 years.
Also, Cuban just back stabbed Nolan and Greenburg after saying over and over that he wanted to help them and be a "back stop" to the deal that gets them ownership. Now he's gone and done this and will outbid them for the team. What would make anyone think Nolan will stick around to work for Cuban? There's no way in Nolan sticks around while Cuban calls all the shots.
The only chance is that Cuban spends so much money that they win with sheer talent despite his baseball ignorance.
Cuban getting the team would be the best thing to ever happen to the Rangers. He will do for them exactly what he did for Dallas. Turn them from the laughing stock of the league to annual contenders.
He saved the Mavericks franchise and made them a top tier team for years. The Rangers have never been close to that level. Say what you want about the Mavs choking and what not on the big stage, but the Rangers have never even been close to the big stage. They have 1 playoff win in franchise history.
It wouldn't be quite the same because, while the Rangers have never been a successful franchise, we are far from the laughing stock of MLB. The Pirates fit that description. Plus Cuban wouldn't be taking over the team while we suck like he did with the Mavs.
That said, I agree that Cuban would be a great addition. The thing that sucks would be to see Ryan go.
He has the past decade and still cant win
/spurfan
This is clearly a business decision for Cuban. He doesn't love the Rangers the way he does the Mavs. Assuming he would spend cash is ridiculous. You don't spend a ton of money on something that is clearly an investment. If he thought of it as anything other than an investment, he would have joined the fray months ago.
And Nolan would NEVER stay, why should he? To work for the guy who stabbed him in the back and took away the team he wanted so much to buy? A team he clearly loves? Nope, Nolan would be gone.
We STAAAACCCKKKKKEEEEDDDDD!!!!!!
what an odd game so far tonight
Looks like Hamilton is hurt and Hunter decided to pitch like Harden and Feldman tonight
Hamilton is hurt?
Someone wanna tell me why Matt Harrison is on this team? He sucks. There HAS to be someone at AAA better....
Lee, Hunter, Wilson, and Lewis is a solid 4 man rotation. If Feldman can pitch like we know he can.. then we are in good shape
Harrison sucks, but will be pretty good in a few years imo
