The Jung era begins: Jung vs B Jays - Jung/9-11

[Kelleyman]

It is really unfair to judge a young guy that early, especially when he isn't afforded the opportunity to play himself out of a slump.

Look how long Seager and Semien struggled and they have lots of experience. Look how many big league at bats it took Leody to look good.

Y’all think I am unfair?

No. I did not read it that way. Thought you are spot on. Lots to prove for several.

Let's put away the unfairness and instead I will call it really, really premature.

"Unfair" makes it seem like it was a personal thing against him and I know that isn't the case.

Or it could seem like the player himself would suffer due to what you thought and I know none of us have that kind of influence. Lol

Funny thing is I really hope Josh Smith does well
I just wish he was a little bigger

The Rangers made a flurry of moves on Thursday, one of which was officially calling up Jung, their No. 1 prospect. But the Rangers also recalled infielder Josh Smith from Triple-A Round Rock. Smith played some third base and outfield for Texas earlier this season.

Along with calling up Jung and Smith, the Rangers designated outfielder Kole Calhoun for assignment, optioned pitcher John King to Round Rock and moved outfielder Brad Miller to the 15-day injured list with a right hip injury.

The move may bring an end to Calhoun’s time with Texas. The former Gold Glove outfielder signed a one-year contract in the offseason, with a club option for 2023. Calhoun is batting just .207 with 12 home runs and 47 RBI. He’s been a consummate teammate all season, even moving to left field to allow Adolis Garcia to move to right when Leody Taveras was called up to play center field.

Rangers Call Up Another Young Prospect

The infielder, the second young prospect Texas has called up this month, likely takes the place of a veteran outfielder.

Best wishes to Kole Calhoun. It certainly wasn't his fault that two Rangers managers overused him.
