Multiple local media sources, including Evan Grant of the Dallas Morning News, are reporting that the Texas Rangers have activated third baseman Hank Blalock from the 15-day disabled list, purchased the contract of catcher Taylor Teagarden from Triple-A Oklahoma, optioned right-hander Kameron Loe to Oklahoma, and designated right-hander Joselo Diaz for [...] | | By: Baseball Time in Arlington | | |

| Useless Rangers Stats Of The Week | | 2008-07-18 00:04:55 | | Because everybody’s sick of talking about Hank Blalock:
● Should Milton Bradley maintain his current .316/.440/.610 batting line, his 2008 OPS of 1.0494 would rank as the 185th-best of all-time. Rafael Palmeiro compiled a frighteningly similar .324/.420/.630 batting line in 1999, which ranks as the 183rd-best single-season OPS of all-time.
