Texas Rangers 2021 - 2022 Offseason Thread

Semien is a waste of money with a team full of MIF prospects. He is a mistake, but I really should not be surprised.

are you ever satisfied? maybe we should have just re-signed Holt and Culberson

 

[DTC]

Im just certain the 7th year is a team option/buyout..
Or they’re basically just spreading it out over 7 years with a slightly lower than anticipated average annual value.

 

[Kelleyman]

 

[saddles]

If Semien gets 7 years then Story should get 9 and Correa 11.

 

[scotsman1948]

Nope, he is not what their biggest move should be. If he is the offseason is a huge disappointment.

so they shouldn't do any move if it's not "THE BIG MOVE"?

 

[Duane1952]

That's a good start. Now go get Storey or Segar.

 

[DTC]

Now we’re going to sign one of Correa/Seager/Story and then Robby Ray then we will have a full 40 man roster.

We will then have a few trade chips to address other areas, like catcher and OF.
Seiya Suzuki still on the table as well

 

[scotsman1948]

Come on Saddles, be happy.
He just hit 45 homeruns at the MLB level.
We don’t have any mif prospects we can write in the line up to do that.

i thought Saddles would be happy because now Solak won't be on the field

 

[Kelleyman]

That's a good start. Now go get Storey or Segar.

I think this helps get Story IMO

 

[saddles]

Well, IKF is safe at SS for at least 2 more years here. I wonder if they give him an extension?

Surely this is a rhetorical question

i like one of Story or Seager. only a maybe on Ray but could live with it. package IKF, Solak, Allard, Trevino etc to get a legit CF

He just hit 45 homeruns at the MLB level.
We don’t have any mif prospects we can write in the line up to do that.

He will be great for another 2 or 3 years.

[Kelleyman]

Opposing viewpoint to signing as overpay

 

[saddles]

Hopefully, we can change our penchant for over acquiring MIF in the draft and in trades. Let's draft and trade some COF in the future.

 

[darrylgann]

Now go after the Japanese outfielder, JD. He’d be cheaper.

 

[Kelleyman]

I get that this is not the perfect move. Long term Corea Seager and maybe Story is better at SS
Rangers have zero credibility until now
Marcus S bat plays well
The thing that impressed me was how he worked hard with Wash to improve his defense
