I’m one of the few people who liked the grossman signing. I only liked it because we were probably last I’m the league in left field production for 5+ years and I knew grossman would at least give us steady output. if he doesn’t hit, he usually walks or gets on base somehow.
Grossman allows the team to platoon young guys setting them up for more favorable situations while having a vet hitter on the other days. Not offsetting the platoon with a young guy is troublesome to me as well.

Who says Duran wouldn’t have hit a homer. Miller has no future with the Rangers, Duran does. Miller should be the bench player and Duran should be starting. This looks like Woody’s lineups.
Woodys lineup. Lol. Hey I like Duran even over Smith.
But everybody got all ruffled as I remember when Huff was hot then benched. Can’t have it both ways
They are in win now mode right or wrong.

It’s only the second game

Every manager thinks they have to over-respect the veterans. They allow what amounts to a caste system where young players almost have to get an injury to a veteran to have much of a chance to play. The Rangers were that way even during the rebuild to some extent.

My biggest gripe you guys already know about has to do with what we are doing with Ragans. And I do want to see Duran play. But I am holding judgment on what Bochy is doing for a while based on his past results.

These announcers are correct…Jung looks like he has no chance…totally overmatched

Looks like right field is going to be an issue in day game with roof open.
Who plays RF is key. Robbie had a tough go of it fielding last game

To slow. The 1st to RF would have been caught by Adolis imo.
