2022 Texas Rangers Spring Training Thread

Guess the point is I am not sweating pitching right now. Even Howard who in the long run is at best a placeholder. Surely the franchise won’t rise or fall with his success or failure lol

As it turned out, I sure would have loved to have seen what Burke could have given us in that spot.

It is a good thing, but we are soon going to run out of time to try out guys like Dunning, Burke, Otto, Alexy and others. Fifteen months from from now the auditions may be done with.

I agree and think Burke deserves his shot again. I think with bangs and bruises likely he will get it

 

[Kelleyman]

He has been a pleasant surprise that I had little faith in. Glad I was wrong

 

[Kelleyman]

Here’s a guy we should keep our eye on.

Sometimes nice things happen when we least expect them. Glad to be wrong

They got some guys on the way

I hope we see Alexy at some point this season.

I have been waiting for him to get here since we drafted him. He is going to be really good.

There is still no starting pitcher listed for Round Rock's Opening Day tomorrow night.

Astros replacement for Correa is some kid named Peña who has been tearing it up in spring ball.

I know how everyone here feels about Joe Buck, so I thought I would share what Heyman said.

Good morning. Any of you guys use the MLB app to watch games. Looks like there are alot of blackouts but after the game there is a game replay right?
Thinking of going this route. Thx

I work at home with a pretty good internet. I wonder if that would help. At first I thought the blackouts were a deal breaker but I have watched on delay quite a bit in the past due to other commitments. Even the Astros games are blacked out. Those are games I like to watch live

These west coast games are a pain though.
I might have to check. The schedule

I still do not understand the need to have Kole Calhoun on the team.

Maybe a hold over bounce back candidate?especially if we play him only vs RHP and get his numbers up.. maybe trade him at the deadline and pull up our best prospect?
