Jim Callis did a chat session today...one of the highlights:
Rangers Question Please! TEXAS: A couple of Rangers questions, What is your take on the Hamilton/Volquez trade and what is your take on the state of the Rangers minor league system? THANKS!
SportsNation Jim Callis: (2:28 PM ET ) Rangers have really restocked their system in the last year via trades and the draft. I loved that deal from the Texas side. I know the Reds have more outfielders than they know what to do with, and I guess they felt like Hamilton's body won't hold up after all the abuse he has subjected it to. But I don't believe in Volquez.
