CJ never stopped being a Ranger, today he showed it...again. Combine him with the pen and you're gonna need more than five runs to win. Today, a 5-4 loss after losing a 3-0 lead. Last outing, blew a 5-0 lead.
I'd say remember Richards in 2012-13. Minors, starter, bullpen, spot starter. Always had good stuff, just couldn't seem to put it together. Similar case with Shoey, he needs more starts and he's been serviceable in the back end of the rotation.
According to 1090 AM in San Diego, the Angels have expressed interest in starting pitcher Ian Kennedy. One of the would be trade pieces looks to be Kole Calhoun. The Padres want depth in the outfield with the constant injuries to Carlos Quentin and possible trade of Chris Denorfia.
Then again, just rumors.
Today is Raul's birthday. I'm sure EVERYBODY in AW wants to wish him the very best for his contributions to the team. A .200 average would look really good right now, Ibañez.
