Obviously, Buck's opinion is going to be heard, ... I think that's the case with all managers or at least it should be. But there will be a lot of people involved in all the decisions we make.
"Jon Daniels" is the current President of Baseball Operations and general manager (baseball)/General Manager of the Major League Baseball team Texas Rangers (baseball)/Texas Rangers. When hired at age 28, he was the youngest GM in Major League Baseball history, and as of 2011 he was still the youngest GM.
More Jon Daniels on Wikipedia.I'm glad we're down to one spot in the rotation, and we've got time to decide. It's time for them to show us something.
I couldn't have seen this coming. I don't think anybody could have.
We hope to make the decision at the end of the year that we want to keep him beyond the term of the deal.
I haven't been contacted, the Rangers haven't been contacted and I haven't had a chance to talk to Coco. We support him and whatever decision he makes. I understand he's under some pressure with national pride at stake.
He's somebody that we think can help us. We got a quality pitcher and added a nice prospect.
He's 24 years old, a power pitcher. We look at him as a starter. He has a plus fastball, and had some success in the major leagues last year.
There's not a yes or no answer to that. We want to prepare as a team to be as good as we can be out of the gate. If two months into the season or when Roger makes a decision to come to Arlington, I'd love to sit down with Buck and decide whose spot he takes. In reality so much happens during the course of the season, I don't see it as a problem.
That's the difference to me: Michael Young is the type who stepped up before we had to make a decision, when Soriano said he wanted to play second base. That's why Michael is such a leader on this team.
