So the Rangers need a 1B now?

Morosi is saying that they're giving up two pitchers and a position player in addition to Smoak. Beavan and Scheppers?

Rangers trade: Justin Smoak, 1B; Blake Beavan, RHP; Josh Lueke, RHP; Matt Lawson, 2B/OF and get some cash back in the deal.

That's certainly more than we traded for the rental of Unit in '98.  And Lee ain't no Unit.

Maybe Nolan Daniels ain't no Hun.

Good trade for Dallas, even if it's a rental. Lee can take them to their first playoff series win. On the other hand, they'll rue that trade if this year's team flames out early and Smoak kills them for the next ten years.

Best of all it clears the deck for Roy to become the belle of the ball.

That'd be this Josh Lueke.
