I must raise my post frequency!

are really not fit to be anything other than bat boy at best, including me.

If that’s the case, I’m the Crash Davis of LSB.

he was traded to Japan, I think.

guy’s got to go get married and go honeymooning in europe.

but the Rangers going on a skid didn’t really encourage me to look for internet cafes to comment in GDT’s.

but if “wants to play for a contender” means I want the Rangers to win more, guilty as charged.

might as well put yourself on there somewhere

the question is whether I’m Derek Holland, just learning the ropes and waiting for my chance to shine; or if I’m Doug Mathis, the 25th man on the roster waiting for the hammer to drop.

But the one thing we all know is that if I’m coming in the thread is already out of hand.

Don’t you mean Assistant GM?

but I still think it needs to be put to vote.

I think I’m the Pirate.
If only skipper would give me a chance..haha

I’m honored to be the DH- that was probably my best position when I played rec league softball about 15-20 years ago. I couldn’t catch or throw (so I usually played catcher) but I was a very tough out. Not a lot of power, but a consistent doubles threat.

I’m currently in Fall Instructs. Ala Jurickson Profar.

You’ll see me in 3 years carrying This Thing. Or trade bait.

Still getting paid some.

But I got to start back down in Bakersfield

This offseason and the upcoming season, though, you will have to make a decision on the rebound that is me, Mitch Moreland (meaning I will be up at Frisco)

LOL

Although I was much more comfortable at 2B than SS.

you guys have a pretty badass community

I can tell you didn’t do this one in 5 minutes.

Well done SLC…and a REC for you sir!

never on the 40. Story of my life. Very funny stuff.

Dirkatron is Darin Erstad?

(Holy shit, how did nobody make that connection before!?)

Where the heck has Melmart been this year? I haven’t seen her around in ages.

I think drinking and headhunting are a good combo.

I must be trying to get in some rehab work after my Tommy John surgery… I guess I threw the remote across the room one too many times this year.

I thought that might have been Cahill’s explanation too.

this is a great start.

Id love to see this expanded upon with more pieces added to it. Itd be fun if we kept track of the 40 with transactions too. Pretty hilarious stuff and Im gonna vote you as the LSB 40’s official beat writer, making you the Evan Grant of us.

To make the mentions i feel honored. its been a little over a year and Im already making noise, ala Justin Smoak… Of course, the one big problem is that I’ll be needing a new screen name here soon enough, even though Blalock has been one of my least favorite players on this team for a couple years now. Maybe i should just switch it to Smoak84.

Beating up on Josey is pretty much the equivalent of crushing minor league pitching.

CF : ghtd36 – Stop running into walls jackass. This team needs your bat in the lineup.

On one hand, staff ace sounds pretty cool.
On the other hand, the Rangers staff ace is Kevin Millwood.

hmmm. hah, good job with the post.

Chuck Morgan?

Booyah.

I’ve been gone way too long.

is to be the Ruben Mateo of this blog.

not only that, I show up in the sig of one poster on the 40.

You’ll rue the day you made this list!!

Just kidding, nice work

for the role of bullpen catcher. Didn’t see that spot taken, never really hear much out of me but I try to make my posts concise, well thought out and fairly valid.

Many giggles throughout :)

And thanks.

I definitely don’t post enough to get on the 40, although my UID is very low ;)

I will take that.

Makes sense, although this next season I am making a push for the show… I will go ahead and take the role of the lizzard…

Don’t we have a Rule V?

Moscoso instead of Benson in OKC… But then again, there would be some benefits of being Benson as well….

I’ve been on LSB for two seasons now, but I’m not cool enough to make a spot on the team, so it’s all good.

2B : clark – Mentioned in a lot of trade rumors. Team looking to dump his salary.

Head of International Operations and Scouting. The Rangers have been one of the best at finding young talented players overseas the last few years. Hopefully MLB does not institute an international draft. Although the Rangers may not pay for the best known, high price players, they are great at finding the unknowns.

Good money with no expectations. That’s good with me.

“I just wanta give it my best shot, and good lord willing, things’ll work out.”

likes me better. At least I was on his 25 man. Just call me Frank Catalanotto.

Been a disappointment

Looking to package him along with GDT-rookie phenom jdh90 to Lookout Landing for Robert

that I got hosed.

Draft Coordinator

but in the end, I’ll just sign with the Yankees.

See ya, suckers.

the bullpen catcher if at all possible. I’ve always thought that has to be one of the top 5 jobs in sports…

just that I made the AAA team. I used to be so much more active. Damn work!

lost our prospect status years ago.

after playing in the independent leagues, I’ll try to make it as a walk-on.

by the lack of anyone agreeing with me that I got hosed, maybe I did not get hosed.

Who is the unruly fan who starts the wave?

No maybe you will remember the bloggerformallyknownasBigBaddBubbaJ

I miss a decent amount of the GDTs over the last month or two of the season since I went to a lot of the games, and I don’t even come close to making the 40 man roster.

to those I forgot and left off the list. Like I said, it was going to be impossible to do a list like this and not forget people. I spent a decent amount of time doing the post (about and hour or so) but knew I would still be forgetting some names.

I saw there were a few who thought they should be on the team because they are active in the GDT’s. However I am not. I usually avoid the GDT’s. I wanted to put people on who contribute more that “Yay!” or “DFA his ass.” Some here post a lot in the GDT’s, but also contribute in other postings as well and they’re on the team. Again, sorry if I forgot you.

Also from reading some of the remarks it seems that there are many who are a little upset that they aren’t in the organization or don’t have more prominent roles on the team. Let me just say this. From here on out all complaints are to be made with management. If you think you should be on the team make your case with Manager ball or GM c. I wouldn’t complain too much to President Ben or he might just ban your ass. You also have to remember that if you think you should be on the 40 that means you need to replace someone. So throw someone under the bus and argue why you should be there instead of them. I’m leaving everything in the hands of upper management.

I also saw some suggest a few interesting jobs they would like to fill within the organization. Like cookie lady, announcer, bullpen catcher, draft coordinator, grounds crew, Jim Knox et al. Perhaps those are the positions that LSB could vote on.

Anyone with any other suggestions feel free to make them as well.

rarely expresses himself, i am here pretty much ever day during the season, to view the opinions expressed by LSB pros, to cuss the LSB pros (to myself of course) . go rangers in 2010

I’ll be in the clubhouse, writing my name repeatedly on scraps of paper.

One was even democratic.
