Rangers V The Clock - draft and trade deadlines approaching as ARI comes to the Grill

[DT LUNA]

With Scherzer then berrios gone looks like Gibson is next.
Padres, Redsox, Giants, Brewers, Rays and Cardinals have all been linked.
Mets and Phillies could also be suitors

Make em' pay time is near. Hope the bidding gets wild.

Berrios to the Jays

Wow! That was quick

 

[saddles]

2 trades at least.

how many total deals do we make today you think?

I think we trade away 5 guys today from the 26 man.

 

[saddles]

Anyone else feel like the team next year might start to turn around and put on an exciting show? I’m thinking we will be very competitive next year and damn good in 2023.
With Hans Crouse, Cole Winn, Yerry Rodriguez, Aj Alexy, Dane Dunning, Taylor Hearn, Kolby Allard, John King and many more solid pitchers coming up.
Sam Huff, Josh Jung, Foscue, Luis Acuna, and newly acquired Josh Smith and Ezequial Duran are all exciting as well. There’s more too like Blaine Crimm and Evan Carter.

our farm system is starting to get stacked and I believe we will have plenty of money to spend on free agents when it makes sense.

Not next year. Very few of those guys begin the season here.

Lyles, Gibson, Kennedy, Culberson and Holt?

Man looking at the 40 man roster has me feeling old now.
They used to all be older than me then they were the same age and now I’m a little older than most of these guys.. shoot lol

 

[saddles]

Great deal for the Twins.

 

[DTC]

Not next year. Very few of those guys begin the season here.

I think a good portion of them will be up in the bigs come next July. I’m hoping the Rangers pick up a handful of SP, RP and big bats during the off-season on cheap 1-2 year deals with upside. Like 6 guys. Hope 3 really pan out and we can deal them for more prospects and then call up our guys.

 

[saddles]

We better hope this doesn't work out.

Everything appears to have fallen in line for the Rangers to make a great trade today.

Don’t screw it up JD!

This would be perfect for the Rangers philosophy because the Phillies have several weak hitting SS in their top 10.

If it’s the Phillies I like Matt Vireling, Logan O’Hoppe and Erik Miller

for Gibby and Kennedy

I hope they use Philly's interest to get a better offer from the Rays.

Their prospects aren't great. I prefer trading with another team. Unless they're including Abel.
