I seem to remember an announcement that he would be primarily a utility infielder, playing 2nd, SS, and 3rd on a regular basis.

This is a good trade but I will miss Elvis personality, but not his recent play.

Elvis was and is overrated with his glove IMO, making the middle infield for the rangers one of the worst If not the worst in baseball defensively. If Davis can hit 240 with 30 bombs this is a huge win for the rangers

We might miss poor old Elvis. His career batting avg was .274.
Davis has a career avg. of .243. He really wasn't much of a Ranger Killer either. In 79 games against Texas he hit .271. He did hit some HRs and had some RBIs, but now he won't be hitting against them. There are 19 teams in MLB that he hit less than .271 in his career, and several of those were below the "Mendoza Line."
His batting is worse than Elvis. Elvis gets about 40 more hits than Davis in an avg year. He avg 30 stolen bases a year to the 3 that Davis gets. Elvis has 94 Ks per year and Davis has 170.
Oakland got a pretty good deal!

Is there anyone left on the Rangers that fans know or care about other than Gallo and Kiner-hyphen somebody ? Been watching the Rangers since 72, worked on the grounds crew in 86, saw Nolan throw his 5K strikeout. Also was at the game for their first division title and first home playoff game. Now I have no interest in watching or following them. No reason to. Good luck Elvis, had some good times with you and the old gang.
