Series Thread: Rangers Host The Mariners For 3 Games Sept. 21-23(Maybe)

[Kelleyman]

We need an interim CF for a couple of years until the guys in the lower levels are ready. I posted a list of free agent CF a couple of weeks back. One guy who loves it here is available, Carlos Gomez. Sign him to a 2 year deal and wait for JPM or Bubba Thompson to get ready.

Brinson had a very rough year. I wonder if he can be had.

Otherwise I am happy with a young talented Minor league ready for a chance even if his ceiling is a back up.

We do need a RHB

Glad you brought this up. Much time discussing pitching and little regarding position players. Decisions need to be made concerning LF CF 3B and C. Well assume Beltre is not here or not starting at 3rd in 2019,who is? If Gallo is in LF, do we trade Calhoun? And who is our future CF? Questions that need addressing. What do you guys think. I have not seen anyone in our minor teams that is ready to take over CF lmo. Several names for 3rd are IKF Profar or Gallo but which? Just a couple of thoughts going forward. Jump in.

1. Catcher Keep Robbie. Not too expensive and IKF to me is a utility player although a frequent starter
2. 3rd B. Profar has brought his OPS over 800 and works pitchers. I think he has good reaction for 3B

3. LF/CF. this is where tough decisions are made. We need RHB and need to be overall more athletic in the OF. Not sure the plan for Gallo. We are too left handed so someone could get moved with Gallo's arm he projects well in RF

4 DH Choo still blocking Calhoun. Maybe injuries open up spots


Back to CF. maybe a lot of shuffling next year if we don't pick up a solid guy. Points they direction as they have Gallo out there every once in a while. Have to look under more rocks methinks. Anything out there internationally?

Lot of work to do.

I guess the Rsngers think the last week is a good time for evaluation. lol

I wonder if Perez is one who gets another chance due to Banny leaving

For the money maybe Dutch is the better deal perhaps Marteen needed more coddling. Hope it helps

They could still renegotiate

Minor ran out of gas 3-0 Ms

Apparently his offense did too.

Offense failed to gas up and never made it out of the lot.

Thinking they just want to end the season and lost interest playing for nothing. Has been a long hot miserable season

Guess we may not have to worry about losing the draft position

Poor managing tonight

Yeah, it looks like the only question now is 7th or 8th.

Heneman can handle CF next season

It didn't take long for Perez to give up a run.

 

[True Rangers Fan]

I'm kind of surprised I haven't seen Pudge mentioned as a possible manager.

 

[saddles]

A good outing for Martin Perez.

A great moment here at the ballpark.
