The Rangers made a big move Friday afternoon by acquiring 2008 Cy Young Award winner to lead their rotation. In the deal, rookie first baseman Justin Smoak heads north to Seattle as the centerpiece of the trade. The Rangers also sent three minor leaguers in Blake Beavan, Josh Lueke and Matt Lawson, none of them top prospects to the Mariners. The move is the biggest sign in years that the Rangers recognize the importance of winning now.
Lee has pitched four consecutive complete games and had an 8-3 record and 2.34 ERA in 13 starts totaling 103.2 innings. He will take the mound tonight in the third of four games against Baltimore.
If not for slow Internet, this message would have been posted last night.
