Texas Rangers 2021 - 2022 Offseason Thread

[scotsman1948]

I disagree. I see signing Semien and Seager to mean "we don't want to count on our prospects." With the exception of Jung, Leiter and one or two others.

Maybe Howard too. Lol

I see us trading 6 to 8 of our top 20 prospects by July 31, 2022. And a few outside of the top 20 as well.

i think we definitely trade some of those that just don't fit in now like IKF, Solak, Calhoun, Trevino

 

[Kelleyman]

Rangers pretty much set the market and would not be overbid. I thought they would get one but once we got Marcus S I became optimistic

 

[Duane1952]

I wonder who convinced the owners to spend this off season. Whoever it was, I'm glad he did.

 

[Kelleyman]

If we get a great CF and catcher, We will have a very formidable target once pitching comes around. And it will

 

[Kelleyman]

Well at some point prospects do come in very handy to pick up an Ace.

They talked the talk and then walked the walk. Great day to be a Rangers fan.

I'm giving credit to Chris Young.

i think we will trade for a CF'er and sign another starter. i think we've got our stud catcher in Huff

I will give both him and JD credit. Credit the owners too.

And a #2, and an outfielder, and a closer and a set up man. And maybe a catcher.

Agreed. They said they would spend, and they did.

So now we gotta get Trevor Story for CF right??

This has been a fun 48 hours

 

[True Rangers Fan]

Honestly, the Rangers signing 2 of the top 4 FA SS and neither being Story would be some top shelf Rangers shenanigans.

Still pretty shocked by this.

We traded our closer for Kluber......thye still haven't proven they dont suck at trades. LOL

Passan has us get both Story and Baez. Story at 1B, Semien at 2B, Baez at SS and Seager at 3B

boy can't satisfy everyone

Wouldn't mind getting a guy like Myles Straw to play CF, steals bases, solid average, plays good defense, gets on base... probably won't cost much prospect wise

Still like Suzuki in LF but might be looking to go the trade route now

 

[jta4437]

Also, I still really hate Seager's injury history

how about Cedric Mullins?

 

[Duane1952]

The Rangers are trying to get me to attend some games this season. It's working.

Spanky and the gang are happy.
