Teixeira Game Thread

I just thought I would go ahead and get this up.  I figured now that he is traded we can all start kicking ourselves in the crotch every time Tex hits a home run, hits a double, hits a sac fly, etc.  It is not like we are going to be happy with the trade.  I would bet money that Jared does not even put a ball in play today. :)

I guess I should have told everyone that I was being facetious since people around here seem to think everyone else is stupid.

You're hijacking the thread and being repetitive. Move forward.

I have no doubt
Teixeira was the best player in the deal.

I also have no doubts that Teixeira would have been on another team in 2009 anyway, and will play for a contract that will be a burden for the team that has him.

Yes
I agree. It's not like the Danks trade or the CY trade, which involved cheap pitching. We need this deal. All prospects are a risk, and Teix is damn-close to riskless, but frankly, we need numbers at all positions. We need several good cheap players. Not a few expensive ones we can fill-in later.

I undestand
the need to make this deal.  My point is simply to show how much I dislike all the threads on what former Rangers did that particular night.  I know they coming for Tex and thought I would jump out there first.  Who knows, maybe people will not post them just make me look wrong.  If that is the case, it was a small price to pay.

I completely agree
although most of them are posted by one person, Hurley.
