On June 26, 2008, the Rangers called up Davis from AAA Oklahoma

some random news from June 26, 2008

Former Longview Lobo baseball standout Chris Davis was promoted from Triple A Oklahoma and joined the Texas Rangers on June 26.

Rangers recalled first baseman Chris Davis from Triple-A Oklahoma.
 
Davis will start at first base at least until Hank Blalock comes off the disabled list. If he excels, then the Rangers could consider putting Blalock back at third or having the two rotate between first base and DH. If he struggles, then odds are that he'll return to the minors when Blalock gets back. Frank Catalanotto figures to lose most of his playing time.

 I can't seem to find the LSB post on this.

Please help... I know we had one

Anybody in the metroplex that wants to carpool to the games this year. Let me know. I'll be driving to as many games as possible. I can pick you up and take you back home as long as you live in the Fort Worth/Dallas area.

I'm a College grad from the Univerity of Texas. Was in the Army for 10 years and received an honorable discharge from the Army as a 0-2-1st lieutenant.

I'm a damn good driver with only 2 speeding tickets in the past 5 years. haha... and one got dropped cause the judge (true story) liked me.

Just saw this on the Bleacher Report

I'm not so sure I really have faith in him as a GM to lead this team to the post season anytime soon.

He's done some improvements to the farm system with a few trades.

But he's also  made some very very bad moves that have set this team back to the point that we're looking at maybe 2010. And the hiring of Ron Washington has been a big disappointment too.

I'm just getting to the point to where I have really know faith in this team anymore. Sure, I'll go to the games. I;m a full season ticket holder. But you can damn well bet I'll spend more time at Frisco and Oklahoma than I will at the ballpark in Arlington
