Tim Collishaw is the Phil Rogers of DFW, but dumber.

 

I thought Randy Galloway was their Phil.

 

Yeah, maybe he's more like the Sullivan, but dumber.

 

These are four goofy looking dudes. Need pictures.

Following this on twitter by just searching for Garza brings up funny stuff. stuff like "why would the cubs trade garza? literally our only good pitcher"

Btw, you think that ESPN Dallas blogger knows that Bowden is a dolt and led with that headline to make sure everyone knew that going in?

[abuck1220]

theo's gonna want to wrap this up before the pearl jam concert right?

[mookie]

Maybe Theo is seeing Phish tonight.

[shnsajax]

The contract the Rangers FO gave Elvis is what is giving me hope to steal someone great.

This "source" is clearly a planted one. Theo and Jed were on the phone with Texas and said: "Hang on, Jon (Daniels)we have a call.. Hey, Jon, I have to call you back, I have a club ready to make a substantial offer".

 

Click.

You're assuming Garza stays off the DL that long.

[Hawk4Hall]

Do your work Theo and company.

He followed up saying it's not the Cards

[THISisTHEyear09]

Brother-in-law in Dallas said Rangers beat writer said on radio he believes Dodgers or Dbacks are mystery team. Also said it could be an intentional leak to make Texas offer up more

[Tangled Up in Plaid]

I hope it's the Diamondbacks. I'd just trade him straight up for Archie Bradley. [/pipedream]

[Lefty]

I miss those times when the excitement was actually on the field.

Inconceivable.

@BleacherNation: RT @JimBowdenESPNxm: The Rangers - Cubs...Matt Garza deal will get done and Neil Ramirez will be center piece according to source

 

Ugh, I don't know how I feel about Neil Ramirez as the centerpiece. Wait, yes I do; not at all good.

Tim Cowlishaw of the Dallas Morning News yesterday on Profar: He's definitely less than he was hyped to be, but that's neither a surprise nor his fault. The Rangers do a masterful job of selling Baseball America on their prospects, and as a result some of them get overhyped. That's not a bad thing to do, by the way. All it took was convincing one team to believe in how Justin Smoak was hyped and the next thing you know, Cliff Lee's starting Game 1 of the World Series in a Rangers uniform.

 

I think Profar is going to be a good switch-hitting middle infield player with average power for those spots, maybe 20 HRs at the tops. He's a better long term prospect than Elvis, but Elvis is no longer trade bait with his $120 million deal, so chances are that Profar gets dealt this winter if not sooner.

 

So lets just add him to the deal and be done, Texas.

 

Sure Profar might be a bit overrated but the thing about Texas selling BA is silly. Smoak was an elite prospect with a fantastic college and minor league career at the time. Profar was ranked #1 by not just BA, but the other major entities, including a gentleman who now runs the minors for the other baseball team in Texas.

jim bowden is irrelevant

Neil Ramirez might be in the Garza deal, but if he's the centerpiece of the deal (which I doubt), the Cubs are getting sodomized.

[davell]

I seriously doubt Ramirez is the centerpiece. Hell, he hasn't even been scratched from his start yet tonight.
