Texas Rangers 2019-2020 Offseason Thread

It also helps when owners direct GMs to tank on purpose, not sign number one draft choice, hire GMs who have done shady dealings re player espionage, utilize cameras and whistle techniques to steal signs to pitchers. Yes good moves were made but IMO ethics were breached. Some think shady acquisitions re pitchers with criminal issues are ok. But sure let the whole world praise them

Sounds a lot like the Patriots.

He would make a great addition.

Indeed

Rendon had a 2 run HR to left, a double off the top of the wall to right and his 1st RBI was impressive in that with the shift on and wanting to get the Nats on the board in the 1st inning he hit a grounder to the right side of the field where no one was because of the shift. The guy can handle the bat and glove.

SS. Elvis
CF. Santana
3B. Rendon
LF. Gallo
2B. Solak
DH Calhoun
RF Mazara
1B. Guzman
C. Trevino

Sounds like a plan.

Pretty effortless swing too. Almost like Cruz

He is a ball player. Shows zero expressions.

You know you are right on with that observation. Similar open stance and short compact swing. Neither one of them are going to screw themselves into the ground after missing a pitch.

Offseason Outlook: Texas Rangers

"The Rangers didn’t need a new ballpark, but they got one." That was the first sentence of this article. I for one am glad not to have to sit in the sauna when I go to a Ranger game.

Easy power to all fields

So impressive. Looks like a special type of player as well as individual.

first sentence should offend any true rangers fan ( people who go to games at the ballpark).

The rest of the article is interesting, but the first sentence was probably wrote by some out of touch joker who has comfortable summers in NY or LA.

Or one of those people that says "Didn't they just built that stadium, the Ballpark isn't even that old"

 

[The Q]

Red Sox may look to shed payroll and sources say Rangers have had internal discussions about the possibilities

Color me skeptical. Not sure how this works out for either side.
