Hahn says Garcia en route to South Side will be here for Game 2 tonight.


Different Garcia than the one acquired today.

Addition by subtraction.

Hahn didn't cure cancer here, but he rid the team of a large tumor.

I'll enjoy tonight's trip to the park a whole lot more.

Rios wasn't worth much. And now he's gone. Good riddance.

Indeed. A bad contract, didn't seem like anyone wanted him, about to fall through waivers so Hahn the Mastermind got something for him.

Yep.

Clearing contracts, freeing up room, trading for prospects.

I don't think so. In fact, you'll have to get lucky to get one guy that gives you more than he does.

That may be true, but they were not contending this season (by a long shot) and unlikely to contend next season, so why not start Garcia and allow him to develop further at the major league level, while acquiring a piece of what may be a contending team in a few years? They would likely have finished no better than 3rd or 4th place with/without Rios.

Leury is a toolsy glove-minded infielder. Potentially the SS when they cut bait with Alexei... if the great Marcus Semien doesn't pan out.

Some Rangers guy said he's Furcal at best, a journeyman utility infielder at worst, and most likely a productive starter.
