Rangers Trading Deadline Megathread

[Bmurph]

And most of what Beltran has done this year has been with no one protecting him. I'm not sure why anyone pitched to the guy this year. A Rod and Tex have been beyond horrible. Mccann has been ok but he can't play everyday and has a low batting average. With a little protection in a hitter friendly park he should be excellent

He appears to be ours now so I'm all in, whether I think it the best move or not. I just hope there is more to come in the next 30 mins. A guy has to be greedy at this time of the year

Whats it look like w Choo back?

Gonna have to platoon Profar and Beltran gets very occasional OF reps with Choo some DH too

The Mets are back in on Lucroy.

Jacking up the price

Maybe some tweaks in the order but......

I move Desmond to #2, and Mazara further down.

You guys should be happy. The Yanks can't evaluate young talent worth a shit so if they like the pitcher he's probably going to be a bust anyway. Or he'll be a decent reliever, that's the only thing that ever comes out of the Yankee system

Bowden is such a fucking idiot, i hate hearing him talk more than I hate reading his stupid articles

There is a cure for both

Yeah once all settles we will have 2 lineups depending upon pitchers. Of course dependent if we land Lucroy

With Choo and Beltran on the 25 man roster, obviously Gallo goes down. And likely DeShields. And I'm fine with that if Profar gets everyday ABs. But if not, send him down for a month, and call him back Sept 1.

Seeing Tate dealt here reminds me again about how that winning all those games after Bogar took over in 2014 really messed things up. Wash couldn't even get fired the right way. His timing was awful. lol

With Choo and Beltran in the mix, Profar would be better served in AAA til September... there would be no spot for him

We like Beltran but the dose of reality is our # 4 pick where we could not land one of the two top SS now looks it is for a 39 Year old rental. Wish Tate was better

or...

Gallo goes as package for Lucroy.
Profar goes as package for Sale.
JD goes all in for the title.
Rangers fans go insane.

We shall see. Something is gonna happen if Gallo is not dealt. But if Gallo goes there may be some ABs for Profar. And Choo is no guarantee
