PrintPer TR Sullivan and TexasRangers.com Hank Blalock is back with the team but wont be activated anytime soon. Hank's hand/wrist is still swolen and will be out atleast a couple of weeks and definately wont be back before the break! I dont know what y'all think, but for me, a huge Hank fan, its time for the team to move on, either keep Max at first base regularly or go ahead and bring up Davis. Whatever we do its time to get Red out of there.

This is what I do.
I DFA Shelton, I call up either JMJ or Cruz and let Davis Mature a little bit at the AAA level, this gives us more depth in our injury plagued OF. This also gives MaxRam more everyday playing time at first base. This gives you alot more flexibilty, with your backup catcher your right handed hitting first baseman, and if you bring up JMJ he can play first to or Cruz can play all three outfield positions.
ya know
I don’t think I agreed with you on anything but this isn’t a bad idea. Since Max is here, he needs to play and get at bats. His development may be the key to trading Bradley. If he shows he can produce at the plate in the show then he’s next years DH/backup catcher/backup 1B. After the ASB if you trade trade Bradley, Cat, Byrd, dfa Shelton there’s more than enough room for Davis.
As for Cruz or JMJ, I think they need to give Cruz one more shot and see if he can translate his prodigious talent at the MLB level. Also I want JMJ to continue to show me he’s for real in AAA before he’s “rushed” up here.
Not as bad as mine
Hey, Capt Dick, you suck!!
Well said BBL. Im actually going to agree with you on this one. I would love to see CD up here tomorrow but if its not him, at least split the time with Max and not shelton. Im just tired of his dumb red hair and Ks.
Well, at least
you’re not like most folks here, who would post that sore thing, then adamantly claim they did it on purpose when it was pointed out.
...and curse Sir Sidney Ponson, he was such a stupid git.
