Now Ibanez strikes out. Guess he is locating ok but he looks pretty hittable. Credit to pitcher going after our hitters. Folty is wild and been lucky

Looking at next off seasons free agents what do you all want to see the Rangers do?

Sign a SS, COF, 2 SP and 2 RP

sign nothing but depth?

sign just a top SS and let the other players work themselves into the lineup?

just curious what y’all think the team should do

Sign the best available player that can produce offense.

Well Cotton escapes unscathed. Been lucky but defense has been good

Coming up to a half hour to sign second rounder. Doesn’t look like it’s going to happen.

I am hoping we can generate some trades. I would like to keep club young for now

I would like to get Story, Conforto, Zach Davies or Jon Gray, and 2 cheap relievers.
I would let heim go a little longer before giving up on him at C. I like Foscue at 2B, Jung at 3B, Lowe at 1B, Calhoun at LF, Garcia in CF, and DH being open to shuffle other young guys through like Terry, Wendzel, Huff, Calhoun and others.
I wouldn’t mind Hearn, Dunning, Alexy, Yerry and Winn to go along with Davies/Gray, Howard, Allard, King etc..
it takes a lot of SP to get through a season

IKF would be a great back up at SS/2B/3B.

this wouldn’t cost much and would put a very competitive team on the field while allowing the youngsters to come up and learn while being part of a good competitive team and not leaving it all up to them

I hate to burn options if we plan on keeping Terry. But unless your DH is near near hitter on team I would rather use as a platoon for half days off for other position players
You mean an option for someone else who replaces Terry?

Cotton looks like a chunker and thrower and not so much a pitcher

No if we bring him down and bring him back up. Think that is how it works

I would love to get the extra pick next year instead of him signing.

Seager can do it one way or another.

I have backed off Story due to defense. If we have a guy signed long term rather have max til early 30s.
