But Woodward said he still wants Choo, 38, in his lineup as much as possible, even though he is going to be a free agent after the season. Choo was 4-for-4 with a home run on Saturday, while White is still looking for his first Major League hit.


“I love what Choo is doing,” Woodward said. “He is earning it. The one thing I want to make clear to these guys is, 'You are going to earn your playing time if you are playing well and performing well.' I love Choo’s at-bats right now. I want that to be clear to a lot of guys: 'If you give me consistency, you might be in there every day.'”


Hmmmm

why do we always get these managers who are stubbornly loyal to players who are not supposed to be playing?

Crawler- he might just Bogar us and lose a good draft pick

Sigh. At least the Mets experienced a miracle

We are not good at getting the LO hitter on base

No Dave, Gallo is not getting hot again. Just K'd again.

And straight down Broadway....

Raymond loses credibility so often with these statements. So does the In field reporter. And mentions his OBP which is ok but smells like a consolation prize

There is no way Choo comes back unless they trade Willie. But that could happen

Consider this question from a stranger.........Who wants Willie, and why on earth would the Rangers want Choo back in any capacity?

I wasn't near the naysayer on Choo when we signed him - other than the obvious overpay - but thought he played/hit about as good as I'd hoped for overall.......Had we had a good to decent team around him, he might have been a terrific LO hitter/part time DH/steady influence in the dugout, etc.

But hey....I'm a stranger who really doesn't pay so much attention anymore.....ha

Happy Labor Day

Hey buddy.....Happy Labor Day

If the rumors are to be believed then Gallo/Borras wants a 10 year deal at or near $30 mil per.......Is ANYONE on board with this hijacking?

But like I just said.....consider this question from a stranger. ha ha

I for one do not want Choo back and further more I am not completely sold on Willie. Nice to have a stranger drop by.

Does it matter really? Would not mind see Winn.
Winn and Vanasciis not rostered yet.

My guess is Phillips or Eickhoff

From T.R. Sullivan

The Rangers will need an extra starting pitcher for Saturday’s doubleheader against the Athletics. Minor League pitching coordinator Jono Arnold is at the alternate training site and said right-handers right-handers Cole Winn, Jason Bahr, Tyler Phillips and Ricky Vanasco are all built up to five innings and 80 pitches.

• Nick Solak had two hits on Saturday, giving him 72 in his first 70 games. That’s tied for the fifth-most hits through a player’s first 70 games in Senators/Rangers history.
@Kelleyman Winn should be ready
