I would love to have one ore starting pitcher. Other than that, this team is well constructed.

That's who the blame really rests with, in my opinion. Santana paid that guy to know how to handle contract stuff, and he clearly did not.

It would be like your accountant screwing up your tax return. You're not an idiot because your accountant (who in all other context had been competent) screwed the pooch.

Is their pitching coach Al Nipper?

Seems they are taking the Royals approach!

The Rangers opening day pitcher will be making the first start of his MLB career.

edit: what the hell? He was also a relief pitcher in the minor leagues. Its not like they put a hot young starter in the bullpen to get him used to the majors.

Well then. They are either brilliant or certifiably insane. I guess we'll know more in a couple of months.

No pressure, rook. Go get 'em.

Tanner Scheppers is the Rangers' equivalent of Aaron Crow. Will be interesting to see how long they stick with this before Darvish is healthy.

A couple of those guys have nice, sparkly ERA's, but don't forget to check their 2013 "GS" and "GF" stats.

They'd decided he would be a starter about a week ago. Guess he must be the best of the bunch.

This is good news for the Royals wild card chances.

I do believe the taxpayer signs the return that all the information is correct.

Fair point.

According to Forbes, the Royals had an operating loss of $6.5MM in 2013.
