Engel?

So how do you say Engle Beltre's first name ? Is it Engel or more like EnJel? I thought it was just Engel but at the game Saturday night when he was the Ranger's farm player spotlight it sounded like Newberg said EnJel. Thanks in advance to all you Webster's out there...

Borbon or.....?

Borbon or.....?

So, let's take a walk to hypothetical-ville...

If given the opportunity would you rather have Colby Rasmus (minus the players it would take to get him), Austin Jackson (same as Rasmus), or Julio Borbon? Just wondering his value (on this site) in comparison to those other elite-tier CF prospects...

Continue the DFW draft streak...

If you look at the recent drafts of the Cowboys (Felix Jones, Mike Jenkins) and the Rangers (Justin Smoak), both teams ended up with some players that most didn't think would still be there. Hopefully the Mavericks continue this hot streak that DFW teams have had in the draft.

Best cause scenario would be to trade up into the top of the 1st round and make a big splash, with a good chance of getting into the bottom of the 1st as an alternative. Whatever happens, I just hope, hope, hope that we don't stay pat at #51. The team needs the good PR of a big time move. (I'm not counting the Kidd trade...)
