I am excited to see padilla tonight. I think he is going to throw alot of strikes and get guys out considering his situation.

sounds like the rookie shortstop had a good start.

he has looked great so far, he pulled davis off the bag last night but he has been stellar outside of that.

this team can hit, it is absurd how good they are at the plate. they are 15 guys deep that can hit.

IF Feliz and Holland can turn out to be legit....then watch out in the next 3-5 years!!!

The only FA to be are Byrd, A. Jones, and Hank.

I would imagine the team is hoping jones and blalock have great starts so they can flip them for young pitchers, or just younger players. that has been the m.o. the last two years and it is working.

I think byrd will be here for a while. But there are other guys that could be the DH and brandon boggs can come up and play the outfield.

I do agree about Jones and Blalock, but not so sure about Byrd. While I think he is vastly underrated by many Ranger fans - I'm afraid he could get the GMJ contract from another team after this season.

Also, Boggs and Bourbon should both be able to fill OF holes.

Looks like we started our summer melt down a little early.

CJ Wilson can be so frustrating to watch. When he's bad, he's real bad.
