If I whisper my wicked marching orders into the ether with no regard to where or how they may bear fruit, I am blameless should a broken spirit carry those orders out upon the innocent, for it was not my hand that took the action merely my lips which let slip their darkest wish. ~Daniel Devereaux 2011

Will we see much of Fielder ever again?

I'm sure the Rangers are not entirely upset about Fielder's injury -- it gives them an out for 2016; Profar now can play everyday; and now teams will also stop asking about Profar in trades.

Interesting trade. This is Demerritte for Alvarez and a throw in. Demmerritte is 21 years old and a former 1str round pick. He's having a nice season in high A ball. Alvarez is a K machine on the order of Keone Kela, perhaps better, and LHP. The throw in is at least a deep bullpen arm with SP5 potential in a pinch. I can see why both sides pulled the trigger.

Now that the dust has settled, what does everyone make of the trades?
Beltran replaces Fielder. Gallo (not traded) may get some time at 1B. They get Jeffress for the bullpen, though it is not clear if he will close. They have some serious heat stockpiled out there, particularly when Kela comes back. A three man Royals-type relief stack is possible. They give up a really toolsy CF prospect and a bunch of 2nd tier and low minors talent. How well do they stack up against the Astros and in the playoffs?

wrong Texas team, griff.In the best of times, our days are numbered, anyway. And it would be a crime against Nature for any generation to take the world crisis so solemnly that it put off enjoying those things for which we were presumably designed in the first place, and which the gravest statesmen and the hoarsest politicians hope to make available to all men in the end: I mean the opportunity to do good work, to fall in love, to enjoy friends, to sit under trees, to read, to hit a ball and bounce the baby.
