        To be fair....

        As a 20-year-old, in the offensive ridiculousness that is the PCL, in a very small sample.

          So we give up on a very young player for somebody who's at best a moderate upgrade in center field? That's just plain nuts. If the Rangers had that philosophy, we wouldn't have starters like Neftali Feliz and Derek Holland in the rotation right now.

            If there was ever a time to institute a 0.5 year deal, I think it would be now. I'm sure Jackson will be with a new team in 3 months

              With a flukey high BABIP. The only peripheral stat he had drop significantly after the promotion was his K/9. Still though, small sample.

                    He was the rookie of the year at the highest level of professional Cuban baseball last year. I'm reading that It's a major league deal, so we'll have to open up a spot on our 40 man for him too.

                        That's what Theo does. Look at the Sox team now, most of the key players were his draft picks.

                            I wouldn't complain about that; heck the Cubs may have just got a steal. For comparison, Leyons Martin signed for $15 million, and he's supposed to be a center fielder with a very good ceiling.

                              This annoys me with players



                              "It was real cold that day in Pittsburgh, and I felt something in my arm," said De La Rosa, the Rockies' best pitcher during a tough early going of last season. "I said it was a blister and they took me out of the game. I told them I would be OK. But I was not. It was weakness. The next day, I felt pain when I woke up."

                              De La Rosa toughed out eight more starts, until May 24 when his elbow went during a start against the D-backs at Coors Field. He tried telling Rockies manager Jim Tracy and head athletic trainer Keith Dugger that the problem was his groin, but this time no one was fooled. Shortly thereafter, De La Rosa underwent season-ending Tommy John ligament transfer surgery.

If he would've spoke up sooner, he'd be back sooner. Now, we're stuck waiting until June for him to return.
