Texas Rangers 2019-2020 Offseason Thread

What do they say about doing the same thing over and over again and expecting different results?

The belief is he has changed his approach so therefore insanity is not the necessary or inevitable conclusion

Besides last year was a wash and all about development so you what you assume to be a constant may be evolving

Excuses.

Maybe we should have brought back everyone who had a poor year since it was a wash and they were simply evolving. Our starting rotation from last year and Cabrera should have been brought back along with DeShields and Mazara. Why go get Chirinos since Mathis was just evolving.

Why is odor held to a different standard?

when other players suck it’s either “ hello minors” or cya later!

I’ve never seen someone’s suckage ignored and propped up to the degree the rangers have for little odor.

This coming season will be their 49th season as a franchise here. I have followed every single season. I have never seen anything like it, Nothing else is even remotely close.

I think the way they kept giving Michael Kirkman chances would rank second, but a very, very, very distant second.

How long are some of you going to beat a dead horse.

Until he's gone which will be never, so if we come to this board every day we will have to endure the same crap ever day. This is why I choose to stop in about once a week. Shit gets old every damn day

Who is going to back up Andrus at SS?
Any chance we sign Jordy Mercer? I hope we do. Or maybe bring in Tim Beckham

IKF

 

[jta4437]

he only played 2 games there last year and didn’t look to great..
I dont know though
That might be their plan

IKF has put up above average defensive numbers at every defensive position he's played, minus catcher, but even then he's valuable as a emergency catcher and allows you to play Chirinos at DH on days when he's not catching, if you choose

Frazier is ours.

Rangers To Sign Todd Frazier

I can live with it, hopefully he plays more like he did last year than previous years.... longball or nothing

Several have quit coming for that and other reasons. Things will look up in ST.

Not seeing what is strange. Given we are in January and not landed premium 3B, it is a total hedge move.
Not my first choice but a safe move

It has been a strange offseason.

I wonder if Evan Grant still feels this way?

"Bottom line: If Josh Donaldson or Mike Moustakas isn’t playing third for the Rangers next summer, Daniels has some explaining to do."

I believe Moustakas came off the board before we even had a chance to lowball Rendon

Personally I'd rather have 1 year of Frazier than 3-4 of Donaldson

Yeah, I think Evan had already decided we would not get Rendon when he wrote that.

I don't want Donaldson either.
