Thanks.
That's actually true. Mazzilli was always given the nickname "Mazz" in print.
Anyway, I always liked Lee, and though I'm sorry to see him go, I wish him luck in Baltimore.
Everytime I see Lee Mazzilli's name in print, it reminds me that the Rangers traded Ron Darling and Walt Terrell for him. That might have been worse than the Harold Baines trade. Geez, no wonder the Rangers never have and probably never will have any pitching (CHAN HO!!!).
While it may be a slight net lose in hitting if we can sign Folke with the 13 million we save when/if we trade Nomar we will be a better team. Come this saturday there will be an extra 200 or so players out there on nontenders.
