Lone Star Ball, a Texas Rangers community

Luis Mendoza has been optioned to AAA to make room for Kevin Millwood on the 25 man roster. Mild surprise, although I guess either he or Tommy Hunter would have been a reasonable choice.

Another lousy game.  Luis Mendoza struggled again.  The offense was non-existent until the game was out of reach.  Bah. Evan Grant says the idea of making the playoffs is out the window, and...

Per Richard Durrett on the DMN blog, Ron Washington says Luis Mendoza will be starting on Wednesday, and will be in the rotation for the "foreseeable future." And per Durrett, Mendoza will...
