Calhoun struck out in his first AB. He's going to fit right in. We can't even hit Erasmo Ramirez.

Maybe this is where I start hoping for a top 3 pick. We are about to be in last place in the West
We'll be in the top 10 for sure. Better start checking out the college ranks for pitchers.

Beltre has been saying "We can play better" for a month. Wonder when that is gonna kick in.

I hope Calhoun is viewed as a trade chip for this offseason by the organization. Yes... the guy can hit, but we already have someone in our lineup who presumably won't be replaced that reminds me of him. Odor. Odor never takes walks. We're going to have a lineup full of guys that strikeout a lot ( I know Calhoun doesn't they say), swing for the fences, and never take walks. Doesn't sound very appealing to me.

Calhoun is 5'8 and over 200 lbs. The guy doesn't even look like a professional athlete. Scouts are skeptical of his ability to play in the field anywhere at the major league level. Of course the dodgers were gonna throw him away to us, as you all know there is no DH in the NL. I hope JD can flip him for something this winter.

Mariner announcers calling Gallo's homerun at 456/113. That's a Titanic shot.

We will just draft another Dillon Tate or an athletic position player with a very low floor.

Are you serious?

You can't tell me people around here are excited about Calhoun.
Altuve is not tall either. You know nothing about him at this time. Give him a chance. Dodgers saw something in him.
Did you ever see Kirby Puckett play? According to you he couldn't play either. lol

You continue to miss each and every single point. I've seen very few people so clueless post with such fervor as you do.

You appear to have missed my point. You want the Rangers to use him as a trade piece, then go on to talk about how much he sucks.

If he sucks so much, why would he have any appeal as a trade piece?

Did anyone inquire about Claudio in the trade talks? I did not hear anything if they did.
