Series Thread: Rangers Angelic visit to La La land 7/18-7/20

[Nightcrawler]

For those of you who hate the late games..... I think this series is our last one until September.

 

[Kelleyman]

Hate to say it but not too excited about trading Profar or Gallo or any move until and unless we get the Prince situation figured out and how long can Choo be down? He really should be DH and platooning to give 1/2 days rest for guys and full days rest for guys in OF. I thought Post ASB was time to make changes after first half assessment. Surely they are not thinking Prince takes 1B back 2017

Problem with Choo at DH, it still doesn't open a spot for Profar... With Beltre, Andrus and Odor in the IF (I don't think 1B is a good fit as of now), then DH is the only spot that makes sense, hence making the Fielder situation all the more frustrating

Have to think DFA is option for Prince offseason. If not then this will be a huge disappointment in FO. Banny showing huge faith playing him 2 out 3 games in ChiTown. Banny gets to play who is here but FO chooses who is here. Where Profar fits in I am not sure. Just frustrated with Prince middle of lineup day after day after day with no significant progress

No way we trade Gallo unless its for a guy with TORP Potential

I don't think Gallo brings back a TORP.

 

[Kelleyman]

I don't think Gallo brings back a TORP.

Definitely not a proven one in the bigs

To be fair, Ham said TORP potential, but I don't think Gallo brings that back either.

Not by himself.

DFA Prince
Mitch DH
Trade Odor
Profar 2nb base
Gallo/Rua 1st base
IMO best way to go

I perked up for a minute there

Alittle time in AAA wouldn't hurt

No it would not hurt if we could count on a healthy Choo. SMH. Injuries have hurt us bigtime esp re flexibility

 

[Kelleyman]

Once again we need to fix the Prince situation and 1B before I feel like all this is fruitful. Don't like giving away Gallo. Too much upside and this time lets ride the HR slugger prospect to the finish. We could be easily selling short

Sounds good to me.

The downside of being a team that is theoretically a piece or two from a championship.
