Okay... did anyone else see this...
The Astro’s website is reporting it’s Nevarez and 2 PTBNL. Here is the link.
I didn’t want to take the time to sift through the posts about it to see if this was caught yet.

TR's story on Rangers.mlb.com
references three players.
The Rangers completed a trade with the Houston Astros on Tuesday to reacquire the 14-time All-Star catcher for three players. The Astros will receive Class A pitcher Matt Nevarez and two players to be named, one of whom is reportedly Double-A infielder Jose Vallejo.

Here's my question
Who are we going to pick with the 31st pick in the draft next year?
"What ... 92 miles per hour?" Feldman scoffed. "That's not gas. Feliz throws gas."
by NorCalRangersFan on Aug 18, 2009 6:17 PM CDT reply actions
depends on what we do at 15
It is 15 right? Everyone else signed?
"I tend to like young Latinos" -Jason Parks
It is the 14th overall pick
Assuming that Crow signs.
The Rangers have rolled up the welcome mat and bludgeoned the Angels with it. - Josh Lewin
I thought Crow was already a compensation pick
"What ... 92 miles per hour?" Feldman scoffed. "That's not gas. Feliz throws gas."
by NorCalRangersFan on Aug 18, 2009 6:20 PM CDT up reply actions
No
He re-entered the draft but was a regular first rounder. The Nats picked Drew Storen with the comp pick they received for not signing him, which is why the Rangers picked 14th, not 13th, which was their actual draft slot.

Gotta love riding the TRE for Stars games
"Let me tell you something my friend. Hope is a dangerous thing. Hope can drive a man insane." ---Red, The Shawshank Redeption
Yup...
riding the TRE has probably caused me to go to 2-3 times more Stars games than I would otherwise. Save probably $5 or so on gas, plus like $15 on parking, plus I can sit on the train and do whatever for an hour instead.

JD started looking for a catcher as soon as Salty went on the DL.
Wanted someone with playoff experience. Scouts very high on Pudge. Bat should play better with more rest. ’Stros had very good reports on his prep with pitchers.
On Purke, won’t get into specifics, could come to an agreement, Rangers made an outstanding offer.

He said it took him a few hours this morning to decide whether to waive his no-trade option and accept deal: "A lot of different things come through your mind to make a decision like that. But at the end, it’s the best for you."

TT is from the area.
I’m sure he idolized Pudge as much as any young catcher during Pudge’s stay here.
They interviewed him on the pregame
and he said he never thought in his wildest dreams that he would be on the same team with Pudge. One of the first times I’ve ever seen TT smile in an interview.

He absolutely blew up for a couple years there… but then I think he got wise. I don’t think he’d have been this good for this long being a catcher if he roided (long term). I don’t blame him – everyone else was doing it.
