Ok fellas here's my work in progress for the banner. I do have the pitchers picked for this, but I'll have to get to them on Monday. Each one matches up in the same general era as the hitters shown here. Two of them are probably very easy to guess.

I will guess Jenkins, Rogers, Ryan, and deGrom. The other one, to go with the Beltre era, is tougher as there are lots of possibilities. I will guess the guy who had the beat postseason performance in Rangers history, Derek Holland.

Almost nailed it spot on. Holland did not make the cut, but your reasoning is close to why the guy who did got picked.

edit: I'll also mention that I picked Gonzalez over Pudge because I feel Pudge gets plenty of due/recognition already. Juando was a 2x MVP and was an absolute monster in the 90's.

Would @Nightcrawler approve of Mitch or Odor perhaps? Have to go Ryan. Would not mind Colby.
If going early days maybe Charlie H

Yeah, lots of guys stepped up in the 2 WS runs: Lee, Lewis and even Feliz. CJ was an important pitcher as well, just not as big in the postseason.

That is true. Pudge is my personal favorite, but picking Juando is understandable.

I will say that is it not CJ. And it was really hard not putting Yu on there.

I could live with Feliz. He had a great moment.
Do think the Cobra embodies the Ranger spirit needed. Lee was a rental and spurned us
Ceej. Nope. Dutch ok but dog issues. Harrison the injury ir going back to Juando days maybe Kenny R. Kind of have 4 eras

The picture of Feliz after striking out ARod is an epic one.

Anyone ever see a game in Dallas Burnett Field....home of the Dallas Eagles. Saw several and also a NY Giants vs Clevland Indians. Saw stars Willie McCovey and Rocky Colavito.

That is a great memory. My family did not move to Dallas until 1969. After field was closed I believe
