This is a great day in Ranger history.
Too bad they cast aside Fuson for that awesome extra year of John Hart.
It'll be hard to imagine Daniels being any worse. I'm fairly optimistic about him.
What a great day that is scarred by the promotion of Daniels instead of Fuson. bastages.
Now if Hicks will sell the damn team.
Just imagine there's a really obnoxious graphical sig here
and in other Ranger news, carlos almanzar tests positive for steroids and gets a 10 day suspension.......
28 Years old?????????? holy crap......... I should have applied.
Spek to everyone who is happy to see Hart out and is sad that Fuson is not here to replace him.
I guess if Hart gets another shot at a GM job, he can prove that the Cleveland team was because of him or in spite of him. In other words, which team is more representative of his work: Cleveland or Texas.
I think the showing that Cleveland has had since he left is more indicative that it was Cleveland or perhaps the work of the current GM of Cleveland when he was under Hart.Originally Posted by BeetDigger
Hart's legacy as Ranger GM: He signed Chan Ho Park.
Oh, and he hired Buck.
Other than that, meh.
Here's hoping Daniels is the next Theo Epstein.
actually Ranger fan..be afraid....Hart resigned to move upstairs...if that was possible....still plenty of bad decisions for him to make.
Spek to all who are happy Hart is out and Fuson is in San Diego.
Thanks a million, Tom Hicks!
if you heard the press conference today, you'd know that hart got fired,........they say he resignedOriginally Posted by Scott D
we'll see hart somewhere else by next season, bank on it
and it would appear Hershiser wont be with the Rangers next year either.
Who'll be our pitching coach then?
umm, cant remember his full name, but its a guy they are all pretty high on, last name of connor i think....Originally Posted by AllAboutThe'O'
they want hershiser to come back, but he has higher goals.....and the Dodgers are in need of a manager right now.....
Mark Connor...the bullpen coach right now. I think he was a pitching coach in Toronto a few years back.Originally Posted by jk the sooner fan
04...we gave you Chan Ho Park and your GM tried to trade for a Ranger who had been on the DL for over a month last year. 'Nuff said.
But I'm glad Astacio is doing well in San Diego. I liked him...even if he did suck as a Ranger. Hope he wins tomorrow.
VOTE FOR PEDRO!Originally Posted by AustinTXHorn
Go Pedro, beat the hated Crapinals tomorrow and all will be forgiven.
I haven't heard too much about Daniels.Originally Posted by AllAboutThe'O'
Is he a Sabermetrician(sp?) like Theo?
Just imagine there's a really obnoxious graphical sig here
i dont know much about Daniels, but i've not heard anything bad about him, minus his "age"......
hiring a guy thats been in your organization, thats familiar with the fans, team management, players and the issues facing the team, is going to let these problems be addressed immediately......rather than taking the time to go out and look for somebody, and then the time lost with the new guy trying to get ahold of things
no idea if JD will accomplish any of his goals or not, but i'm willing to give him the chance.......do something in the offseason, something to give the fans something to look forward too
Chan Ho went 4-2 for us. His ERA is a little high, but if his stuff could ever be harnessed he'd be all-world.Originally Posted by AustinTXHorn
Astacio has been a huge surprise. Ol' Petey's stuff has been electric. He's been our #2 for a couple of months now. He's got to pitch well for us Thursday if we've got any hope against the Birds.
