Series Thread: Rangers Host Seattle Aug. 29 - Sept. 1

[WastinSomeTime]

Blaine Crim and Curtis Terry are to names to keep in mind as far as future 1B. Terry could be a couple of years away and Crim would probably be 3 years away. Then there is always the possibility that they move one of the 3B they just drafted to 1B as well. Whatever they decide for 1B after this year might be a short term solution.

Of course they could sign Rendon and Abreu this offseason amd change those situations dramatically.

I thought I heard something a few weeks ago that Abreu would like to stay where he is.

Angels pitcher Tyler Skaggs died from a deadly mix of drugs and alcohol in his system, this according to authorities in Texas where the young pitcher tragically died earlier this year.

The Tarrant County Medical Examiner released the cause Friday, saying the official cause was due to ethanol, fentanyl and oxycodone, along with "terminal aspiration of gastric contents."

Some guys can be swayed. Whether he is one of those remains to be seen I guess.

What a shame that people destroy themselves like that.

 

[saddles]

Abreu probably makes more sense than rendon because we have jung now.

TR Sullivan is usually pretty plugged in and he picked Rendon as the most likely top free agent for the Rangers to pursue.

Odor is the worst everyday player in mlb. Owed 37 mil next 3 seasons. Good grief JD.

He will not be cheap. Try though, JD. I can’t imagine what Gerrit Cole will end up getting but it won’t be from us.

 

[DT LUNA]

We would have to eat all but about $2-3 million per year of that contract. That is part of the cost of doing business though.

We won't spend that much for good pitching so why would we spend that much to get rid of Odor.

A highly potent deodorant stick is needed.

Very sad. That is one toxic mix.

 

[darrylgann]

Lot of pitches there Allred

 

[darrylgann]

Solak, you’re a keeper

 

[DT LUNA]

Much better in the 2nd Allard

 

[DT LUNA]

Solak teaching Odor how to hit

 

[darrylgann]

Odor! That’ll wake up the neighborhood

 

[saddles]

 

[DT LUNA]

Trevino and Willie Boy putting us up 2-1

 

[DT LUNA]

Allard looks very promising.

Isn’t this a bit knee jerky? Way too early.

Don’t people remember how terrible he was at the plate earlier this year. I was thinking he should get his next shot in spring training. He looked totally overmatched up here.
