Rangers get Cliff Lee

Posted by on at

I’ll have more to say tonight, but..
The Rangers get Cliff Lee, and Mark Lowe (on DL for season) plus $2.55M in cash for..
1B Justin Smoak, P Blake Beavan, P Josh Lueke, & 2B/IF Matt Lawson. Other than Smoak, those guys are all AA players, definitely not major league ready. A friend of mine in Seattle said the press up there is going nuts about catcher catcher catcher. Surprised he’s not getting a catcher. Teagarden, Salty, or Ramirez.
USSMariner is happy about Smoak, though. As they should be.
But the best part about this – the ABSOLUTE BEST PART is that the Yankees did not get him. I honestly don’t care who we gave up. So long as it doesn’t help the Yankees, I’m all for the trade.

G83: Rangers unload on Cleveland, stomp ’em 12-1

I’m still backlogged, but I wanted to say something about this one.
The Rangers just stomped on Cleveland. If this was a full update, I’d use my whoop-ass graphic here. Twelve runs, seventeen hits. Four home runs (Hamilton, Guerrero, Cruz, & Murphy). It was about time we do this, as we’ve been fairly flat recently.
