If Davis had already been traded when I wrote the first base piece, and Guzman had already been signed, the 16-year-old would have been the choice at that position, and Tomas Telis would have replaced Guzman at DH.

I knew and read that, duh on me, I just remembered that he said Guzman moves to 1B, forgot the Telis part

I don't see Scheppers making it to TEX.

I think he does, but only as a bullpen arm, and probably not the closer

I think Mark Hamburger could be a good closer long term, if/when they ever move Feliz to the rotation

wonderful thought, but this scenario assumes that everyone of them will be ready at the same time and that we will lose players like Kinsler, Andrus, Moreland, etc and not try on any free agents or participate in any trades. a lot of these kids will make this team but i never see a scenario where they are all on the team at the same time

He never said all of these guys would make it. The whole point was to build a 25 man roster using our minor league system. It's not a prediction. It was a great series that allowed fans who don't follow our system to get to know about some future Rangers.

Exactly as Kenny states, its only building a 25 man from only the minor league system, lets say if we released every player on the major league roster,

It was simply a way to give insight to the highest prospect at every position, as opposed to the typical top 10 or 20 prospect list
