Well, my baby was born, and things are going great. If you’re interested, there’s a story here. I’m still not ready to resume big updates, but I can get this small one.
1) Augstin Montero was suspended for 10 days for violating MLB’s new steroid program. Dumbass. Can’t remember who we had to sacrifice from the 40 man roster for this guy, but… DUMBASS!
2) In a move that kind of surprised me, we demoted Adrian Gonzalez to AAA and prompted Laynce Nix. Not sure what prompted that, exactly.
Nice 3-0 win yesterday. I actually had the Rangers game on a couple of times when my wife was in the hospital. Once before the baby was born, and once after the baby was in the room. My daughter was one day old, and I was showing her a Rangers game already.
Gonzalez getting sent down – didn’t see that coming although I guess he’s not been that hot so far. No doubt we’ll see him back up soon though and hopefully we’ll see Nix hitting the ball a lot better now. It will be nice seeing him back in the team to be honest.
Glad things are going good with your baby and your wife – I hope for nothing but good things for you all and who knows, maybe in a few years she’ll be able to say she was born the year Texas won their first World Series. (Okay, a wee bit ambitious but it’s nice to dream. ;-)) :-)
