Texas Rangers 2022 - 2023 Offseason Thread

Trevino was successful after Bobby Wilson tutelage. Marteen is perfect here for now

A couple of bats and I agree with you. We have to win those 1 run games we have been losing. New pitching will help but more offense and we will be on the way.

I am wondering if Bochy feel for the pitcher makes a difference in lessening all the one run losses

We certainly should reduce the numbers with the new acquisitions. Fewer runs allowed should produce more wins. Bet Bochy has got it filed away in his head.

I have already mentioned giving Bubba more time to up his hitting ability because his speed is so important.

Marlins Have Pursued Triston Casas In Trade Talks With Red Sox

The Red Sox and Marlins have been discussing trade scenarios, with recent reporting indicating the Sox have have some interest …

I wonder if the Rangers would be interested in Triston Casas to play 1B so they could move Lowe to DH. Boston might want a combination of major league ready players and prospects.

Maybe even a three way trade where Lowe goes to the Marlins, Garver and Gray go to Boston, and we get Luzardo from the Marlins and Casas from Boston. Of course those guys would also cost us some very good prospects as they are under control for several years.

Is Bochy the best manager we’ve ever had?

Is Bochy the best manager we’ve ever had?

Whitey Herzog, Billy Martin and Billy Hunter would be in the running. A lot of folks would say Johnny Oates. I would probably say Martin.

Yes. Plus he’s never lost a game yet.

What about Showalter in 2004 who had a starting staff ERA of around 5 and won 89 games.

And this is another reason that makes Heim so valuable.

Haven’t had a stud outfielder on this team in a long long time.
