Cool opportunity

You beat me to the post. I think it is cool that Daniels is willing to answer questions in a forum like MLBTR.

I know he will not be able to speak specifically about possible trades but I wonder if he will be willing to comment on previous trades.

I'd be curious to hear is post-trade thoughts on:

The Padres trade (the Chris Young/Adrian Gonzalez/Adam Eaton/ Aki Otsuka version)

The Texeira trade

The Gagne trade

The Chris Shelton/Freddy Guzman trade

I was worried

someone was typing the same diary.

I'm glad I noticed it was already up...

I just wish you would have posted a few minutes earlier so I didn't type the whole thing out just to look up and get beat to the punch.

Bah

I don't want to sign up for it:

Here's what my question would be:

"What was the line of thinking that management had when they made the trade of Young/Gonzalez for Eaton/Otsuka and what lessons did you learn from that trade?

If someone wants to post that, I'd appreciate it.

I asked...

if the team has a blogging/commenting policy since BMac and CJ (and probably a few others) are regular posters/commenters on sites.

by rangeressary on Jan 22, 2008 8:36 PM CST reply actions

I'm

going to ask....

Why havn't the Rangers traded Millwood, Padilla, and Arias for Kazmir, Crawford and B.J. Upton...

He will think i'm a F'in genius, can't wait...

Mr. Daniels...

...are you a "boobs" kinda guy?

or are you more of an "ass"-man?

by oc on Jan 22, 2008 9:07 PM CST reply actions

Heh

Given his preference for "up the middle" prospects I'm guessing the latter, catcher's mask optional.

hurlerhurley has to drink a 6 pack just to have one for each of his usernames.

by t ball on Jan 22, 2008 9:11 PM CST up reply actions

"Up the middle"...

nice, but catcher's mask should be mandatory.

I sent a couple of questions, one a lengthy question about how the organization values and evaluates defensive play, the other was asking if any types of players or skills are undervalued in the marketplace.

by miles on Jan 22, 2008 10:10 PM CST up reply actions

no offense

but if you can answer the question that easily, you probably don't know the difference between a firecracker and a dud.

And there are skills that can't be taught.

I think I might take the latter.

What is your

descripion of homely?

+2 for pics...

Because if that meant like a nice ass, but not as good of a face, then I might think about it..

Many fans can't stand having Hicks as the owner of thier team, do you think the job you've done to this point (building the farm system), has been done because of or in spite of Hicks?
