Congrats to Neftali! Let’s hope the Rangers leave Neftali as our closer and have him work to become the next Mariano Rivera.

Church!

I was honestly surprised that Derek Jeter didn’t win this one.

Good Article Andrew, we appreciate the work. What I can say is that a lot of times these awards, as with many all star selections, are won the year before. Gardenhire should have won one in the past 5 season, not this season because the story behind Wash was remarkable and the Twins were the preseason favorites to win that division. However, sometimes it takes a series of losses to raise enough awareness of a guy to get him the win, especially one as low key as Wash, who didn’t garner any national attention other than the cocaine scandal before the postseason. I can’t say whether or not the cocaine played into the decision (although I think if it was a factor it could have only been negative). And you can’t take the playoff run into account because the awards are voted on before the playoffs start. But I’m sure that all of Ranger Fans care a lot more than Wash. We desire for our team (a great team) to get national respect, and these awards are evidence of that. I’m more comforted by the fact that I don’t think any of these guys give a crap about these awards, that they are proud of the way they played this year, they are proud of their manager, and they are proud to be Texas Rangers.

Comment on The Garrett Conundrum: Should Jones Try to Catch the Ginger-Bred Man? by Ryan Hennesy

Spot on, Tim.

Garrett has the skills to be a good coach. It’s unfortunate that Jerry won’t allow a system for success that doesn’t have his hand in the cookie jar.

How long do we think Jerry has left to live?

Tim, I’m with you, but like Ryan said, I don’t think there’s any way Jerry hires another Type A personality like Bill Parcells again. Of course, maybe Jason Garrett is like that and is just waiting for his chance to expose his inner “Bill.”

Tim makes some very good points here. It would be a shame to see Garrett leave and have success, much as Sean Payton did.

Comment on Bidding War Cliff Notes, Part Two by Andrew Brandt

I honestly think No. 3 is a big deal, maybe even for Lee himself. Nolan was his favorite pitcher, so I’m sure he likes the idea of pitching for his boyhood idol.

Love the sign-off. This boat is real!
