J.J. Putz to DL

Apparently strained something in the ribcage area while pitching to MY last night. Roy Corcoran gets the call to replace his spot on the roster.

Rangers re-sign Vazquez

Outworlder47 — Wed, 21 Nov 2007 21:22:28 -0000

Per mlb.com, http://tinyurl.com/yvg957

No specifics as to salary in the press release, but seeing as it's a one year deal, and Vazquez was eligible for arbitration, it can't be too much. He works as a utility infielder type, I suppose.

They also signed 27 year old infielder Ryan Roberts to a minor league deal with a spring training invite. Roberts was .077/.200/.192 in 26 ABs over the past two years in Toronto, and had a .769 OPS in AAA last year. He went to UTA.

Hurley and Galarraga 7/26

Outworlder47 — Fri, 27 Jul 2007 01:50:31 -0000

Galaragga: 4 IP, 1 ER, 5 H, 1 BB, 3 K
Hurley: 4 IP, 1 ER, 1 H, 2 BB, 5 K

Hurley just gave up a homer for run #2.

Oklahoma's up 12-2, and all 12 runs have come via the homer. Diaz has two and Cruz has one. Diaz and Cruz both hit grand slams.

Hurley's working fast and hitting 95+.

Poveda - July 5th

Outworlder47 — Fri, 06 Jul 2007 00:51:18 -0000

Omar Poveda starting for Clinton against Quad Cities. Line so far:
4 IP, 0 R, 0 H, 0 BB, 5 K

Poveda is on tonight. He's getting a lot of called strikes on the breaking ball, and has hitters out in front of his change.

Carlos Lee's new agent

Outworlder47 — Tue, 22 Aug 2006 17:32:21 -0000

Carlos Lee just left agent Andy Katz and will now be represented by none other than...Scott Boras!!!

Any questions now about whether or not we should resign Lee?
