The Texas Rangers Plan To Sell A $26 Hot Dog This Season

C.J. Wilson Tweets Mike Napoli's Phone Number. It's Less "Good Prank, Guy" And More "Wow, Dick Move."
Oh good, I see we've reached that point of spring training where everyone's bored and ready for real baseball to start. Tis the silly season, when online personality and sometime pitcher C.J. Wilson takes to Twitter and posts former teammate Mike Napoli's cell phone number to the world....
Since Robin Ventura's Back In Baseball, The Rangers Will Stop Showing That Video Of Nolan Ryan Beating Him Up
Last year, Texas showed the famous 1993 brawl between the Rangers and White Sox before every single game.

The New York Rangers Made The Day's Worst Jeremy Lin Pun
You're the Rangers. How do you enlighten an oblivious public that there's a New York team that somehow has fewer championships in the last 70 years than the Knicks, and ohbytheway is in first place? With this ad in today's Newsday, apparently. No Carl HageLin? No Ryan CalLinhan? No Marian GaboJeremy...
