neither has any future in the majors.
They say he can be a 4th OF but too much on roster that already needs trimming minus injury plague. Enough said on my part.

If he ushers in a release of Culbertson would that at make you and rest of the board happy?

i don't expect anything from Duggar and i was already expecting Culberson and maybe even Miller to be gone by trade deadline anyway and possibly even Taveras

Keith Law's latest mock has us getting Elijah Green. That is the second mock I have seen lately that has us with Green.

Jones
Holliday
Green
Collier
Parada
Johnson
Lee


God, I hope not. Strikes out too much for high school. A first 5 draft pick should have no issues with strikeouts in high school.

I posted because someone mentioned earlier that Allard was scheduled to pitch for the Rangers this weekend.

That was me and it was because both Rotowire and CBS have Allard listed as the Rangers starter for tomorrow

Miller needs to be on the bench. Smith needs to be playing as much as possible.
part of me wants to Smith and Duran get max playing time but Smith kind of looked lost out in LF his 1 game. he was worried about someone hitting it over his head and played way to deep. he should get some time in AAA playing LF but i don't want him sent down at the same time

He did cut his strikeout to walk ratio from last year to this year.

I found this draft idea on a Pirates page. Sounds like a plan.

"Johnson would likely be an over slot draft pick, meaning they would have to go under slot later on (cough, cough Ivan Melendez, please)."

Just wondering if the Rangers are trying to move a player and that is the reason for delaying Duggar

For Pete’s sake when can we change the banner? Beltre, fielder, and Darvish are all gone.

Sounds like a project for a young guy. Who would you put up there?

With all the problems the team has and you want a new banner?

I thought he looked good out there. A lot of times someone in the dugout tells them where to play.

In the interview with Woody, he said Beasley had no discomfort with Josh in LF and yes they told him where to play untill he became comfortable.

Looking at the averages of the batters and I get the ire for such low averages today vs decades ago.
When I was young you were not considered a top level hitter unless you hit 300. And you usually had at least 2 on your team and a few others within shouting distance. And I remember when they had to lower the mound because the pitchers still dominated. Of course the velocity has to have increased a lot.

No big deal. Just obvious the game has changed
