Not surprised at all. So much excitement 2 years about Leiter, Winn and White. Would be such a blow if neither one of them ever become a decent starter for the Rangers. It’s not looking good right now. Hope Leiter can get it together but baseball can be so unpredictable
Based on what I have read and seen from Leiter he may have to pitch out of the pen to make it to the big leagues. Mainly just 1 inning per appearance.

The Marlins have purchased Shaun Anderson from the Rangers.

This is a good article about a troubled young man.
That was a good article. Feel bad for the guy. He has a lot on his plate. We have a daughter who is 43 years old who is legally blind, cannot walk or talk and is like a 1-2 year old. In my younger days when things would go wrong she would rise to the forefront and it was easy to have a pity party. By the grace of God my wife and I have peace with all of this. But I wasn't in such a public forum as he is and we did not have the media making it even worse.

I'm so glad God has given y'all a peace about it. That is amazing.

My goodness I can only say thanks for persevering! I tip my cap to both you and your wife for being able to handle this!!........And you are exactly right about the forum that all these young athlete's have to deal with now. Surely you read about the 30 year old golfer who committed suicide just last week? So much pressure! Again, please hug your wife for me!

Jung has more homers and as many RBI’s as Duran and Jankowski. How crazy is that?

J. Profar is batting .323 which is the third highest average in MLB.

That is definitely the part of his game we miss. Duran, Smith and Taveras just are not long ball hitters and I think Langford will be at some point but has it found it yet. Come close a few times.
