Rangers have a player named Juilo Borbon who was born in Starkville. They were saying how his dad was a professor at MSU and how there have been so many good players to come from MSU.

He grew up in the Dominican but born in Starkville. He should be the reason andruw jones gets waived or released this week when Nellie Cruz returns from the dl (but likely won't happen). He'll get called back in September when rosters get expanded. Should be the 2010 opening day lead off hitter. The 3 prospects toronto was asking the rangers for in the potential halladay trade was borbon (4-5 2 runs, 2 rbis, 4 stolen bases), Derek holland (7 innings, 2 runs future ace) and neftali feliz (2 innings, no runs, save, future Ace, current badass) all played a vital part in the rangers win Saturday versus Boston. Good move Jon daniels.
