An hour to go and I haven't heard anything that remotely interests me, would be disappointing after all the Sale or Lucroy+ talks

If we get Beltran, and Choo actually comes back healthy this week, what then? Or maybe JD is betting on Choo hitting the DL for a 4th time this season?

If that's the price, no way
Not trying to argue but maybe I am missing something. He is struggling at low A against guys at least 3 years younger than him.

Don't care for Beltran for Tate either

Pretty much takes Profar's spot in the lineup, hopefully they're smart and let these guys get their ABs in AAA this time

Well, I guess I was wrong about Beltran to the Indians then. If he can come here and continue to hit .300 and for power he will be a nice add to the middle of the lineup.

Thoughts on Beltran-Tate trade:

-Beltran is old, but the guy can still hit a ton. Instantly upgrades our offense.
- Either Profar might get traded or Choo is hurt worse than we realize.
- Rangers must not think as highly of Tate as they once did. I had heard that he probably only had reliever upside at this point.

Depends on what is going back, I've got a bad feeling I'm going to be disappointed

If I'm trading Tate, I want more than just Beltran.

Still don't like trading a 1st round arm for a rental after one year of minor league ball

Any more than Tate makes it a desperation move IMO

If Beltran comes and Choo returns my guess is both Profar and Gallo head to AAA until September.
