The great Evan Grant writes in today's Inside the Rangers newsletter that a trade may be brewing between the Rangers and the Dodgers.
According to Round Mound of Rangers Beat Writer, the Rangers would send Texeira and either Gagne or Otsuka, and would receive, in return, 1B James Loney, RHP Chad Billingsley, and highly-touted prospect LHP Clayton Kershaw (a Highland Park Scot, no less).
So, let's see: For a top-notch starting position player with a year and a bit until free agency (and the Baseball Antichrist for an agent) and a top reliever, the Rangers would get a very young starting position player with a TON of upside, a very young starting (probably) pitcher with a TON of upside, and a stud LHP prospect who's a local.
Grant is pretty sure a deal along these lines is well along. I certainly hope he's right, and the Rangers are able to see it through.
Stay tuned...
