July 9, 201015 yr QUOTE (bighurt574 @ Jul 9, 2010 -> 03:29 PM) Was just looking at the Rangers' prospect rankings at Baseball America, their top prospects each year have had a crazy success rate: 2001 Carlos Pena, 1b Rays 2002 Hank Blalock, 3b Rangers 2003 Mark Teixeira, 3b Yankees 2004 Adrian Gonzalez, 1b Padres 2005 Thomas Diamond, rhp Cubs 2006 Edinson Volquez, rhp Reds 2007 John Danks, lhp White Sox 2008 Elvis Andrus, ss Rangers 2009 Neftali Feliz, rhp Rangers http://www.baseballamerica.com/today/prosp...010/269402.html
July 9, 201015 yr Rangers would basically be like him going to the NL until the playoffs, but the Sox would have to get there first... probably a lot of those NYY leaks were from the Mariners to force other teams hands. If the NYY don't get Lee or another front line pitcher I could see the Rays winning the div with NYY getting the WC Edited July 9, 201015 yr by SoxFan562004

July 9, 201015 yr This is crazy considering he's supposed to be starting tonight. Let's see if that happens. Go Reds.

Go Reds. good point, but with the all star break coming up if I'm the team trading for him I may want him to start tonight and get a little limited work in, but I believe CC pitched right before he got moved

That is a win for the White Sox
July 9, 201015 yr QUOTE (fathom @ Jul 9, 2010 -> 03:47 PM) Lee, Volquez, Cueto, Leake, Arroyo with Chapman gaining experience in the minors to slot in for Lee in 2011, good job Cincy front office!
July 9, 201015 yr I REALLY hope he goes to the Rangers. I say this because the Twins have 7 games left w/ the Rangers, the Tigers have 5 games left, and the Sox are DONE with them. The only time the Sox might have to see them is in the playoffs.
