Rangers Send Saltamalacchia to Minors

[vance_the_cubs_fan]

The Rangers optioned Jarrod Saltamalacchia to the minors today. They didn't want to make him a part time player with Laird still on the roster.

 

He'll likely be back whenever the Rangers deal Laird which could come in the middle of the summer if a contender finds themselves in need of a catcher.

Yikes, glad I drafted Soto instead of Salty.

[Roast]

One of the guys in one of my fantasy leagues yesterday was bragging about how awesome his team was and how he was going to rake this year.

 

He was starting Longoria and Salty.

 

Heh Heh Heh.

And my fantasy draft just changed drastically...

Do the Rangers think they're competing this year or something?

If Salty doesn't pan out, Daniels might as well just pack his bags.

[TruffleShuffle]

this is stupid.

Gerald Laird is a stud

 

OK, I couldn't type that with a straight face

[GoCubsGo1679625768]

Why not stick him @1B? Who are they going with Broussard? Seriously. I though Daniels was a progessive type GM? How did this punk get a GM job...

This is good news for me. I'll get to see him when I am in OKC next month. It'll be cool to meet him.

Go [expletive]!!! I live in Columbia as well, huge Carolina fan, hopefully we take it to Kentucky tonight.

[Buford T Justice]

I guess I have reason to go see the Oklahoma Redhawks now more frequently. :)

[Vanilla Ice]

Go [expletive]!!!

 

That's what she said

[Elrhino]

Seriously, you would be hard pressed to find a GM who has been so thoroughly robbed in trades than Jon Daniels. People get angry that Hendry traded some of the dregs of the system for Pierre, how about Chris Young + Adrian Gonzalez for Adam Eaton. Soriano for Brad Wilkerson. Francisco Cordero for a two month rental of Carlos Lee.

 

 

I don't know why the Rangers would want Salty playing C full time anyway. With that big body playing in that Texas heat, it's going to wear his bat down. I always thought that was the beauty of him going to Texas ... they didn't have an everyday 1B, so he could bounce around from C to 1B to DH depending on matchups and fatigue.
