Gerry Fraley, Dallas Morning News, on Rangers

Very high on Mark Teixeira, thinks team should sign him long term. Hardest worker, wants to win. He & Buck Showalter don't match up as season goes along. Says Buck tends to increase tension on the team, doesn't relax & delegate authority; but with all Tex's qualities, he doesn't need this pressure. *INTERESTING NUGGET: JOHN HART USED TO HATE THE GREAT MICHAEL YOUNG A FEW YEARS AGO. AT THE TIME, AROD WENT TO HART AND FOUGHT FOR HIM. Gerry thinks John Hart should stop complaining about the 'hitability' of the ballpark, & things would work out better. Of course, it would be nice if they had a dome.
