Gotta get one in there, Joe.

 

[DT LUNA]

Must have a few guys lurking.

 

[True Rangers Fan]

Will we see the resurgence of the Mark Holtz peckaway theory?

 

[DT LUNA]

Don't like that turf.

 

[DT LUNA]

Gallo strikes out again.

the difference is that you are looking to move them to make room while i look at them as the centerpiece of the team for the next few years and think the team (i.e. JD etc) will look at how to improve the team around them and Darvish, Holland, Perez and possibly Gallardo using our system and possibly a free agent or so.

The difference is that I have thought out how they would fit or not fit and have discussed it on here and you refuse to do anything other than to say it will work out with all three guys. Based on what JD has said it looks like Beltre will be extended at some point so where will he play in 2017? Where will Choo and Prince play then? Where does Gallo play? What about Rua, Mazara, Williams, Brinson, and Cordell? Smolinski? Where do you see those guys fitting in? What about the pitching staff. Between Holland, Yu, Perez, Chi Chi, Thompson, Oritz, Jackson, Lewis, Harrison, Martinez and Asher who is here and who is gone? If you don't have any idea about those guys then how can you say Choo and Prince have a place here long term.

Three aging players in Beltre, Choo and Fielder will not be the centerpiece in 2017 or this team will be in a whole lot more trouble than they have been in for awhile.

Joey needs overtime in the batting cage.

Looks like Martin got a couple hits too. Looks like Bass was awful

Does it really how much we think about this? Its really up to the guys on the field and the guys in the front office, luck and health

What's nice is there is depth at most positions on the field, and we can let these guys sort it out and progress like they should

This year might be rough, but you're going to start seeing the next wave in the next couple seasons

If we only commented on things that we make a difference about when we comment then this board would be a lonely place.

Holland had a sharp outing from what I've read, Kela remains solid as well.
