Salty or Teagarden?

Teagarden.
I wouldn’t trade Michael Main straight up for Bengie Molina, even if my alternate catcher was a pointed stick. - KLaw
He can't hit. At all.
I wouldn’t trade Michael Main straight up for Bengie Molina, even if my alternate catcher was a pointed stick. - KLaw
Teagarden seriously doesn't look like he belongs in the majors when he bats though.
Salty just kinda sucks.
I wouldn’t trade Michael Main straight up for Bengie Molina, even if my alternate catcher was a pointed stick. - KLaw
And Salty seriously don't look like he belongs in the Majors when he hits unless he can be a catcher.
Which he can’t.
True, true.
I wouldn’t trade Michael Main straight up for Bengie Molina, even if my alternate catcher was a pointed stick. - KLaw
Found himself, with Salty sent down in May, in an "oh shit"-gotta-do-it situation?
And then, STBF under the pressure of that situation? Let’s see what happens this time around. Maybe more of the same, but let’s see.
That's because it wasn't.

There was a period after Tea had that run in April '08
Where the entire board thought he was the catcher of the future.
There where even some folks who where saying they wouldn’t trade him for Clay Buchholz.

Er, September '08
I wouldn’t trade Michael Main straight up for Bengie Molina, even if my alternate catcher was a pointed stick. - KLaw
FTR, I would have traded any catcher for Buchholz.
I was just hoping it would be one of the other two.
Teagarden...
is to me as Chris Davis is to most of the people here at LSB.
I’ve given up on him and am annoyed when I see him in a Rangers uniform.

Keepin it Classy Gentlemen
There is, in fact, a manly and lawful passion for equality which excites men to wish all to be powerful and honored. This passion tends to elevate the humble to the rank of the great; but there exists also in the human heart a depraved taste for equality, which impels the weak to attempt to lower the powerful to their own level, and reduces men to prefer equality in slavery to inequality with freedom.

Comparisons aren't always positive.
Kiker is like Cliff Lee if he forgot to pitch.

This passion tends to elevate the humble to the rank of the great; but there exists also in the human heart a depraved taste for equality, which impels the weak to attempt to lower the powerful to their own level, and reduces men to prefer equality in slavery to inequality with freedom.

While I agree
its highly unlikely any other umpire could really see that one anyway. 2nd base maybe.
well
i guess he couldnt think of anything worse than a K there
remember 2 years ago
when the rangers had all this catching depth, but didn’t wanna trade maxram, salty or teagarden?
Alexi Ogando
Still has more hits than Taylor Teagarden….
Matt (Denver, CO): Congratulations, I heard you won a gold glove!

If it was a roach it was the size of a small rodent.
Yes.

They tried to trick everyone with the commercial paper essay. Had nothing to do with HDCs, negotiability, or anything “normally” included.

Congrats
Yeah,
I seem to remember a trick question on mine too (O&G???). I think there’s usually one
The entire essay was about accord and satisfaction.
The whole thing.
The entire O&G question was about force majeure and PPQ.
Business associations was literally "describe the advantages and disadvantages of general partnerships, LLPs, and LLCs.
"When I want my men to remember something important, to really make it stick, I give it to them double dirty."- General George S. Patton
Seriously?
A force majeure question? I’m shocked they could get away from what you would think is the crux of all Texas O&G law: how you divide the bonus and royalties.
Why would you force manure on someone?

It was ridiculously easy.
The secured transactions question was pretty straightforward, PMSIs in inventory, BIOCs, etc.
They got super tricky with both of the wills questions, the first all about how to distribute intestate with a pretermitted adopted child and a child without a presumed father thrown in. The second had another adopted child who ended up murdering the testator.

Yup.
Double plays might be right behind home runs for me as the most emotion-ivoking plays that are possible in a ballgame.

This may have been talked about earlier, but I just saw it.
Jon Daniels Per Evan Grant:
“We’re still open-minded,” Daniels said. “I think we can be a little more selective now. I don’t think we have to do anything else. But if we can improve the club without cutting into our core, we’d be open to that. I don’t think you are ever done. But with Cantu and [Mitch] Moreland, I think we will get more offensive production from first than we have.”
Ian Kinsler expected to miss more than 15 days while on DL; Rangers open to another deal
Looks like Davis's leash was pretty short.
