Bye-Bye Mark

Not, Tex, but Redman. Here's the news on the dude.

AAA: at Oklahoma 4, Round Rock 6
Loss: Simon (3-9, 6.85)

Jason Botts doubled and walked twice. Round Rock alumnus Dave Matranga hit his 7th homer and walked. Alfredo Simon allowed four runs in six innings.

Round Rock’s Chan Ho Park gave up three runs in seven innings. As a Ranger, he pitched at least seven innings with three or fewer runs allowed in 15 of 68 starts. Ah, so many memories.

Mark Redman opted out of his contract with Oklahoma.

Lefthander Mark Redman opted for his release yesterday after going 2-4, 5.34 in nine RedHawk starts, permitting the Pacific Coast League to hit .315 off him.

I'm not sure what the future holds for Redman, but I wonder if it is going to be something other than baseball. He hasn't had much success this season, in the Majors or Minors. I'm sure that is very discouraging for him. And others. I wish him the best of luck in his future.

The GOOD NEWS is that reliable sources say Mark Teixiera will be playing here in Arizona this weekend.

The BAD NEWS is that he'll be playing for the Atlanta Braves, not the Arizona Diamondbacks.
