Rangers interested in Cody Ross, Michael Bourn

Not sure that either of these guys is the answer. Bourn helps the pitching staff with his defense, but I don't have much confidence in his hitting. Ross? Average.

Texas will be okay, but they have been passive this offseason.

Texas looks like they're standing pat until the right deal comes along. They still have Andrus, Olt, Profar, all its pitching, and, most importantly, they haven't tied up a lot of long-term money in a crackhead OF with health problems or a head-case pitcher that is just above average.

Olt and Andrus for Felix Hernandez? Not likely, but a big deal such as that to acquire a top-line pitcher? Who knows, but they're not done.

they all suck

Ike Davis Baby, he's available!!!

well that's the problem,,the rangers do not want to trade any prospects, the d'backs ask for profar and Olt, for justin upton, yeah the rangers refuse to accepted any type of that kind of deal, shields availability in the trade market yeah the rangers refuse to trade prospects as well,,,

Olt/andrus/holland/profar/morrison/ogando/ all this players for felix hernandez?? now this should be a top trade of the year!!!!

the rangers don't have any other options at all, either take bourn and cody ross, or trade prospects as a last resort!!!

the rangers have been doing good business untill this year, but this winter they fall a sleep,,,

Just imagine what the Rangers would do if they had a capable manager.

You mean one who would put a defensive replacement in right field in the late innings of a clinching game?

D-Backs supposedly signed Cody 2day. If he's restricted, Sox get 1st shot back at him.

Rangers don't need either of these guys ... what they need is PITCHING ... but there just taint none available ... and no GreenKey wasn't it ...

That doesn't even make sense, unless....

...the D Backs are preparing to move Upton or Kubel.
