Okay then, with my original question in mind, if the Rangers was in that position that you just described, what would you give for him to bring him here? Would you give up a prospect in the 15th to 20th best prospect range? Maybe 20th to 25th range? Or less?

So in a scenario where we're in contention but have been decimated by OF injuries, and given Gallo's current/historical performance, and contract situation, and he represents a better option than what we have now...

I wouldn't dip into the top 20, so I guess I'd say 21-30 (I'd want it to be someone who played a position we're set at as much as possible). Probably need a "AAAA" player like DeShields and a lower rated prospect as well.

Gallo is at his lowest point and rarely wise to sell low. The return is so little now, it is worth the gamble to wait and see if he can balance out Control of the plate and power

Not sure what is being told as they flatter him a bit too much for my liking.

He is meant to be a power hitter but should probably be swinging more freely early in the count and then protect the plate with 2 strikes
Seems pretty basic to me

I don’t remember the last time this team had a lead. Game 2 of yankee series?


feels like it’s been a week.

Yeah, at this point it doesn't hurt to wait and see if we can get more eventually.

At this point, who do you think, if any, will be on the team in 2023?
I think Dunning IKF Garcia Solak

I think Dunning will be in the rotation and Garcia and Calhoun will be in the starting lineup. Most likely Lowe due to what they gave up to get him. I have no idea about the bullpen. I am not sure about anyone else. It all depends on which free agents they manage to sign and which prospects develop as hoped.
