Saw this one first. Guess it was not the complete video

I get the feel that our batting instructors may be the best this organization has ever had

That ball pops loud

Pretty stand up. There were articles deleted too

I found no Passan report that was referenced.

They really should meet tomorrow though

Nothing from Evan Drellich either.

Apparently, they did meet last week on the non-core issues after the back to back days they had met about core issues.

Exactly if I am looking for news re lockout/ MLBPA meetings this is who I go to

A Top 100 prospect for every club in 2024

The flow of prospect talent never stops. Several of baseball's most phenomenal phenoms should make their big league debuts in 2022, including Orioles catcher Adley Rutschman, Mariners outfielder Julio Rodríguez, Royals shortstop Bobby Witt Jr. and a pair of Tigers, first baseman Spencer...

Rangers: Evan Carter, OF (No. 9)
Carter flew under the radar of many clubs in the 2020 Draft, but the Rangers saw five-tool potential and loved his makeup, so they selected him in the second round from a Tennessee high school. A stress fracture ended his pro debut after 32 games in Low-A, though that was still enough time for him to impress scouts with his patience (34 walks, .438 on-base percentage) and solid upside across the board.

Kudos to you folks for keeping this board going during both an offseason and the lock out. Ranger news just seems non existent right now.

Keith Law has his brand new list of top 100 prospects out.

26--Leiter
32--Jung
92--Harris

No Fodcue or Winn, but Harris did make it. That seems odd to me.

The article did skip #42 for some reason so I guess that could be Winn. Maybe he is doing a bit where he attempts to show he has retired Jackie Robinson's number.

I saw this and thought the same thing looking for Winn around 50. He is not that big on Leiter
I heard Leiter can reach 98 but he says no and no projectile uptick. No 2 ceiling

I was thinking w which pitchers in the rankings would I rather have other than Winn. Even M Gore I think I would say no. Winn appears to have a workmanlike temperament. So funny about 42. Lol. Surely that is not the reason you suggest

 

[Kelleyman]

Funny the write up on Mayer of BOSox - like they for so lucky Mayer dropped to 4 when they were drooling over Leiter thinking their pull for him would get him. Such garbage

 

[Kelleyman]

And Lawler too so high. Law is soft on Leiter and higher generally on position players to me at first glance

It is Robinson's birthday today.
