2014 Offseason

Pretty much. Alfaro would hurt though.

Soooo Zimmerman & Harper forrrrrrrrrrr..........................

Oh man, I don't even want to think what it would take. I'd say it starts with Profar and Gallo. They'll need Profar with Desmond in his contract year. Thing is, I'd be hesitant to send both because we will need a third baseman soon, so maybe we hold Gallo out, but it will likely require including more top prospects like Jackson, Thompson, Alfaro, and Chi Chi.

There has to be a move made involving one of Andrus, Profar, and Odor. Too many ML caliber middle infielders and not enough places to play them.

They might wait to see if Profar can say healthy. PLus trading EA at this point is going to be tough, and we won't get any value out of it. I would give him some opportunities at 3rd. That way he becomes versatile while giving Beltre some time off.

I would like to see what Profar does in 2015 and then make that decision at this time next year.

Elvis at 3rd?
Weakest hitting 3B of all time?
Defensively, he'd hold up...but that lack of power...

Agreed. If anyone is going to third it's Profar.

Lol I think you're overvaluing him a bit

 

[saddles]

Did anyone notice that BA's Top Ten Ranger prospects didn't include Luke Jackson?

 

[Hambombs]

Yeah Romeo no way we keep all 3?

 

[romeo212000]

Yeah Romeo no way we keep all 3?

Long term? I don't think so.

Overvaluing whom?

Profar. Sorry, I wasn't clear

 

[Hambombs]

Overvaluing whom?

Alfaro

 

[romeo212000]

Alfaro

Think you may be undervaluing him. Players at his position with the ability to hit like that don't come around very often.

 

[RevSader]

Alfaro

Based on what? I am interested to see where you take this.

TR Sullivan reports we are close to signing Colby Lewis.

You "out did" yourself with this one young man.

In my humble opinion, this is really good news.

Hopefully the first of several "good news" talking points.

I want him to live and pitch forever. They can keep replacing what breaks with robotic parts.

I'd be very happy with this. Good #4-#5 guy. Still need a #3. Dammit Perez, why'd you have to go and get hurt?
