This trade was important to me as i now have a set outfield with Cargo,Upton and Cruz.I lose  great players in Andrus and Feliz but you have to give to get a superstar like Cargo,This is one deal i could not pass up when i saw he was on the block by Colorado.Cargo has always puts up good numbers and is a top fantasy outfielder.

Thanks Rockies for dealin

I agree to this deal. Once again it was a pleasure during the trade process. Thanks Rangers.

As others have pointed out the going rate in free agency is through the roof. It was a tough decision to trade Carlos Gonzalez.......but I went in expecting to get a lot in return and I feel that I did. Elvis Andrus and Neftali Feliz are both very young and affordable and able to contribute to my team at a high level right now. I am thrilled to add them to my squad. With Feliz moving to the rotation this season the sky is the limit. Three of my rotation spots are filled with young and talented arms. The addition of OLT adds another power bat to the talent I am trying to sockpile in the minor leagues.
