Returned home today from visiting my little sister who lives in Pflugerville, which is about 15 minutes from where the Express(Rangers AAA) play.
Got home to see these trade pickups first
Peter Bourjos(from Levi, thanks man!!)
From Spencer
Yogi Berra(very excited for this one)
Kent Tekulve
Doug Glanville
Chad Jenkins
Thanks again Spencer, you are a pleasure to work with
Went to RR game on Thursday..Top prospect Martin Perez was pitching and I really wanted to get Cuban CF Leonys Martin on a ball...
Before the game
Spike Owen 2/2
Chad Tracy 1/1
Brad Nelson 2/2
Doug Deeds 1/1
Matt Dominguez(Zephyrs) 1/1
Bobby Jones 2/2
Nick Green 1/2
Mark Hamburger 1/1
Beau Jones 1/1
Terry Clark 1/1
Neil Ramirez 2/2
Brett Tomko 2/2
Kevin Cash 1/1
Leonys would not sign before the game..Bummer..
During the game I happened to catch 2 foul balls and also noticed Jon Daniels(Rangers GM) was in the stadium..Got him on a generic Dell Diamond card
Then I had a choice to make....I could go try and get Leonys and the other Express guys I kind of wanted(O'Day, Strop) or I could hold out for the big one...I knew what I had to do....So I waited and waited..About 20 minutes after the game ended and the crowd had dissipated, he came down the elevator and walked straight to his car. He signed graciously and posed for 2 photos with the 3 other guys waiting. No Leonys..but it's okay.
Nolan Ryan 1/1 OMLB
