Remember when Jon Lester was almost a Ranger?

Yeah,
I was giddy.

I barely knew who he was.

I'm talking
about last year with the Gagne trade.

You do realize
that Lester really was almost a Ranger in a trade once, right? He and Manny were gonna come here for ARod.
Lester was never on the table last year in the Gagne talks. That’s silly.

It was
in the talks in the media at least.

Don't believe everything you read, young one
If that was on the table, JD would’ve snatched it up quick, believe that.
And I don’t remember ever even reading that scenario posited in the media. What dumb-dumb MecGee said the Sox were offering Lester? Could you find me a link?

Less than a year ago...
You didn’t know who Lester was?
Duly noted.

I believe he
was talking about the Manny/Lester trade.
I didn’t realize Lester was almost a Ranger during the Gagne trade talks.

No way Theo would have done that.

You are correct, sir
And the reason you didn’t realize Lester was almost a Ranger during the Gagne trade talks because he freaking wasn’t.
That’s like saying we almost got Liriano in the Soriano deal, or how we almost got Felix Pie for Laird this off season.
