I guess we will find out how bad he wants to stay. Maybe he will pull a Pudge and be very proactive to make sure things get done.

At this point, the team is going to take a huge public relations hit if they trade him. That part has changed drastically.
Most of the people I know seem to feel that if what we’re offered has the potential to speed up the rebuild then do it

I was a little surprised to see that Gallo has only played 2 full seasons. If he stays healthy he should be good for 200-250 homers over the next 5 years.
2015 to 2021 he has hit 143 home runs. He had 1,788 AB with a .213 avg. 81 HR came in two seasons. 41 in one and 40 another.
Facts show he can deliver but he can also taper off due to different reasons. Because you never know what you will get, how much do you think we should offer him to stay. I wish we had better stats to determine but since we don't, I hope we can land a bundle for him and set sail with the rebuild.

Not a bad idea if the offer fits.

I don’t know what the Rangers are willing to spend but if it’s true he wants to stay here they should be able to work it out. With Boras you never know what is hype to get the best offer though.

Teams interested in him 10 days and 10 homers ago know what his potential is so I don’t think they would offer anymore right now but it may help them pull the trigger faster with all the highlight film they are watching.

If he’s traded for a few prospects and they don’t work out it will just add more time to the rebuild window that started at the end of 2017.

Everybody makes mistakes but it’s hard to believe they are not close to putting a .500 winning percentage team on the field in 2021.

Boras will be looking for something in the stratosphere of contract in the Trout, Betts, Tatiana range

I agree and I hope we let someone else pay it.

I don't think he will be traded for a "FEW" prospects.

I gotta disagree. Even Boras knows there's no chance in hell Joey comes close to those players' contracts.

Boras is in a world of his own. Sometimes I think he looks at it with the thought that because of the fact he represents them means they’re worth what he says they’re worth

Have never understood what separates him from other agents. Owners need to quit caving in to him or they will always overpay.

Yes he knows it but will ask for the max. I really think someone will get sucked in and agree to whatever. Pray it won't be us.
