What are the exact dates of this tournament?

This RANGERS' team is very exciting and a lot of fun to watch. They are still a couple of years away from the playoffs but they are giving the fans something to look forward to. I really like seeing the young talent that this team has. The pitching staff is still below average but help is coming from the minors. The middle infield is as good as any in the league with Michael Young and Ian Kinsler. The outfield has 5 players (Milton Bradley, Josh Hamilton, Brandon Boggs, David Murphy, Marlon Byrd) that can go get a ball and hit. Catching is no longer a problem with Gerald Laird and the two youngsters: Jarod Saltalamacchia and Max Rameriz. It looks like Chirs Davis is the future at first base. The only question is at 3rd. Does Ramon Vazquez continue to play the 3 bag when Hank Blalock comes off the DL? Blalock could be a good DH in Arlington but he made be traded for prospects. Whatever happens it's fun to have the RANGERS playing good baseball again. There's no team in the league that wants to play these guys.

Sweetest swing in the game!!! Congrats Junior. I hope he catches on with an American League team, as a DH, when he's through playing the outfield. I want to see him hit till he's 50.

Pulling for the RANGERS!!!

Actually there were quite a few players from BC that earned district recognition. And for the rest of your comment, who were you refering to when you made the statement, "losers in joint voting authority"?

Nice win Jasper. Good luck in round 2!!! 21-3A will be rooting for you.

Congrats to the entire HJ team. Finish 'em off tomorrow!!!

"The basepaths belonged to me, the runner. The rules gave me the right. I always went into a bag full speed, feet first. I had sharp spikes on my shoes. If the baseman stood where he had no business to be and got hurt, that was his own fault."--TY COBB Plain and simple, the slide was legal. Get out of the way or get spiked!!!
