Bad Day for the Gagne Trade
Kason Gabbard is forced out of the Tampa Bay-Texas game with a stiff forearm after just one pitch in the second inning. His replacement, Willie Eyre, was allowed three hits and three walks in 2 2/3 innings, but hasn't allowed a run yet. Texas leads 3-0 in the top of the fifth.

Given how good Gagne hasn't been for my Sox, I'd say that both sides are having second thoughts.
Gagne was slipping downhill in July with a 4.35. ERA. He was far from awful - most of his outings were okay. But there were signs...
The Rangers probably got out of the Gagne market at just the right time. After all the health problems, the arm had to be wearing down at least a little.
