I think he makes 2022 team and we should see what he has by the trade deadline

Still sounds like we’re in a hurry to get rid of him. Personally I like what I see and think we will see an uptick in his batting average next season. Something we never really saw with Gallo.

Might be a big mistake to get in a hurry.

Agree. Peters brings enough to be on the team next season and after that year we can make the call to keep him or move on

I wish the FO would invest and sign the best hitting coach available

i wish the FO. namely JD, would make some effort to put a good team on the field then maybe we would be talking hitting coaches

Next season I would start Howard at AA

 

[saddles]

As a starting pitcher, Spencer Howard makes for a good relief pitcher.

 

[Duane1952]

Howard started off well.

More of a nut case

Agreed I would make him a reliever and start him on that road at AA

I don't know that he is a nut case. He just needs to be put into the pen. Of course, that would be admitting a mistake, so he will be Odored for awhile first.

If they did odor him it would be in the pen. With Hearn, Dunning, Allard, Alexy, Otto & even Winn ahead of him + a FA starter, it is either the pen or the minors

If he is not Dave and Tom may be

The Howard trade maybe one of the Rangers worst.

New sheriffs in town, don't forget

Have to say Peters. We gave Gallo how many years and he could hit homers, strikeout 200 times a season and play defense but was lacking in so many areas

Joey Gallo is more valuable than DJ Peters.
That’s why Joey Gallo was traded for 4 prospects and Peters was picked up on waivers.
Gallo has hit more HRs and probably will continue to do so. Gallo has a far higher OBP and will probably continue to.
Gallo has a GG and a canon for an arm. DJ Peters will probably never win a gold glove or even be in the top 10 in assists.
Gallo is an .800-900 OPS guy.. Peters will struggle to be a .720+OPS guy.

How could anyone think DJ Peters is better than Gallo?
