Remember when we all wanted Trevor Story

Bet the Astros are in this mix. Funny how Corea has not signed despite rumors

I would have been happy with him and Suzuki.

I would have been happy with him and Suzuki.

If put to task I would have liked one elite SS and one elite OF as out FA signings

It could work out the same if one or more of our infield prospects can be converted to the OF successfully.

It'll be interesting to see where Trevor ends up

Sign him and move Seager to 3B

You guys like infielders? Guess what, we got another one!

He didn't age well at all.

He didn't age well at all.

Yeah makes me wonder if he comes in more of a mentor

I too but I believe they as most top FA will be harder to sign till they see better pitching that will lead to a WS.

Freddie Freeman met with the LA media today. I couldn't be happier the Rangers didn't land this guy. Way too much drama.

MLB Pipeline came out with their new Top 100 list today. Here is what they had to say about the Rangers' representatives.

Rangers (5)
17. Jack Leiter, RHP (ETA: 2023)
29. Josh Jung, 3B (ETA: 2022)
48. Cole Winn, RHP (ETA: 2022)
83. Ezequiel Duran, INF (ETA: 2023)
89. Justin Foscue, 2B (ETA: 2023)

Though the Rangers invested $500 million in Corey Seager and Marcus Semien this offseason, they also have plenty of infield help on the way in Jung, Duran, Foscue and others. Their pitching outlook is trending up with the addition of Leiter (the No. 2 overall pick last July) and the development of Winn (No. 15 in 2018).

Didn't see it but I have always liked the guy. He is a hitting machine and doesn't seem to be slowing down.

Always liked him too, but been hearing that his wife was the driving force to get to LA - she seems like a wanna-be reality tv star. starting to see what people mean.

Reminds me of Josh Hamilton's wife.

I know he is from that area. I am not sure if she is or not.
