Is Lowe really that effing slow?!? That's horrible, especially with a double clutch on the throw.
I was thinking the same.

You're asking for the source from Mr. Gigem?

But definitely official as both Evan Grant and Ken Rosenthal have tweeted as such.

Well, well....guess what I've been saying about CY taking control of things was accurate.

DallasAg may be mixing himself a cocktail as we speak....

We wouldn't have this problem if that **** Nolan would have let us keep Josh Lewin.
Thats gotta be the worst decision Nolan made, right?

Bet they call up Jung soon. His OPS in AAA is ridiculous.... 1.464. And he's hitting .400

Cleaning house. I like that the owners realize the position they are in and want to win.

This right here says it all. JD is the reason we're digging out of this hole to begin with. Nearly all of our good moves as an organization started when Young took the GM reins. I'm SO glad I don't have to head JD signing off on moves that Young does anymore. That was such a stupid power dynamic

So, Chris Young is making the manager hire. This is good news

I do want to say this.

Ray Davis and Bob Simpson are complicit in where this team is today. After paying too much in 2010 and spending as required to try and continue the championship runs, they clamped down in 2017 and played a big role in driving them to where they are today.

No doubt Daniels needed to go, but seeing what Ray Davis said sounded a bit self serving.

Reading between the lines, you have to think that JD and CY weren't on the same page, and ownership liked CY's approach better.

I don't think it's a coincidence that the moves the Rangers have made since CY came on board are much more sound than those in the past. I also have to wonder if JD was continuing to be reluctant to spend money and/or make reasonable offers to get players - either in FA signings or trades.

Can't help but think we'll see a flurry of roster moves coming soon as well. Some call-ups, DFAs, etc.

I'm not a fan of the ownership group to be clear, but the Semien and Seager signings showed they were willing to spend. Hopefully that continues

I assume it's like any job/employer: they made a big splash hire to be the #2 guy, and it became apparent that he was more than capable if not better situated to be the #1. JD dug his own grave by hiring CY, and for that I hope to be thankful.

Glad it happened finally. These two moves to me signal even more we're about to see some big moves in the off-season.

Speaking of Rougie, where has Grapesoda been lately? He probably moved to an Orioles board where he can ***** incessantly about Odor.
