  • MLB Valentine’s Day Card

      Here is a funny MLB themed Valentine’s Day card I found on Tumblr today. Tampa Bay Rays young phenom Wil Myers.  Texas Rangers ace Yu Darvish.  Former Rangers, Mets and Red Sox manager Bobby Valentine. Wil Yu be my Valentine?

  • Shin-Soo Choo Signs With Rangers

    Shin-Soo Choo has agreed to sign a 7 year contract with the Texas Rangers worth $130 million. There were reports earlier this week that Choo had turned down a 7 year deal with the New York Yankees worth $140 million. Hence, people’s first instinct is to believe that he took a lot less money to…

  • MLB Trading And Signing Frenzy

    I cannot remember a day this active in MLB in my life that wasn’t a trade deadline day or during the MLB Winter Meetings.  Heck, this might have been one of the busiest days even including those days! Hope you have a scorecard and three or four sharpened pencils as we go over December 3,…

  • Nolan Ryan Face

    It’s another year and the Texas Rangers have been eliminated from the MLB Playoffs yet again.  That can only mean one thing.  Another Nolan Ryan Face happened tonight!   The Rangers lost to the Tampa Bay Rays in Game 163 to be eliminated from the 2013 Playoff picture and Nolan Ryan didn’t disappoint.  Way to…

  • Nelson Cruz falling backwards over the wall at Fenway.

    Nelson Cruz gave it the ol’ college try last night but even falling backwards over the wall at Fenway couldn’t keep this Mike Carp HR from happening.  I don’t know what I like best about this picture taken by Jim Rogash of Getty Images…the range of emotions in the fans as they watch the HR…

  • AL West At A Glance

    The Texas Rangers have been to back to back World Series (lost them both) and experts think they are a smart pick to get back there for a third straight time.  Does this mean that the rest of the American League should lay down and play dead?  Does anyone in the AL West even have…
