I gotta say and nobody jump on me because I waited until Christmas pretty much, but this offseason is boring as hell.


JD is usually very boring until teams start scrambling for the final pieces out there. Indians paid more than I thought but we have still 4 big bats out there with no home. Rangers are not done.

When is the last time you saw the Rangers sucking big time?
If there is a drop off from last year's win total of 90+ wins and we don't make the playoffs then the season will suck. I know JD has something up his sleeve but if not and we go into the 2017 with what we've got we could see a drop of 12 to 15 wins and it could be worse.

How long have you been watching the rangers again?

It's December. Still have a couple months still season starts. JD will make additions. Look what he did last year with Desmond.

According to Sullivan:

There is a "strong possibility" the Rangers will land Mike Napoli according to sources....No indication it is done but it appears hot

I am not sure what we would get from Napoli, but he is definitely worth bringing aboard in my estimation. Even with Nap we seem to be really lacking as a championship contender.

Can't be the final piece. Still like to see them get another outfielder.

Hopefully something better
Wishful thinking I know but if we could somehow land Quintana then things might start to look a little brighter.

Yeah, but that was due to some level of freak injuries that I've never seen.
Thanks for clearing that up because that was a good team.

Adding Napoli is a good step in the right direction. Doesn't make them contenders, but you gotta build it one piece at a time.
