What will arrive first: Fall or Jung? The Rangers travel to Beantown for some Dunkins and baseball

[Kelleyman]

What is your ideal lineup and rotation for 2025? If it is a free agent acquisition or trade acquisition just specify FA or TA.

Have to tackle later but these 2 are on it
You would hope that Leiter Porter and Kumar are there too but if 2 of those were there it should be a win
Would not be surprised if we got a FA bat but pen improvement will be huge

Guessing we have some of our youth make it up like Foscue. Duran looks like a keeper
Not sure about Huff a lot of swing and miss.
OF easiest to make changes and maybe Carter us a sensation.

That would be really, really quick for Porter to be here.

 

[Kelleyman]

That would be really, really quick for Porter to be here.

Probably so. A guy Like a Cody to be pitching or Winn is ok. We do want guys with dominant stuff but pitchers as opposed to fire ballers are good too for variety

 

[BULLPEN FAILURE]

That would be really, really quick for Porter to be here.

there are guys drafted last year already in MLB

High School pitchers?

 

[BULLPEN FAILURE]

High School pitchers?

no, but my point was that timetables aren't what they used to be. 3 years in the minors shouldn't be considered really really quick anymore.

 

[DT LUNA]

I don't think he will get much playing time if he us brought up. Maybe twice a week. We can't tell anything like that.

Then why bring him up? It will be a complete loss if we can't confirm his abilites.

 

[saddles]

no, but my point was that timetables aren't what they used to be. 3 years in the minors shouldn't be considered really really quick anymore.

He isn't even pitching this year. 2025 would be really, really quick for him. Most likely he will spend the bulk of 2025 in Frisco.

 

[saddles]

I think they see him as a backup at this point. I am not sure that I agree with Wilson that Huff will come up, but he has been right about things like this before.

 

[Duane1952]

He has played 17 games at 3B this year.

Thanks.

 

[Kelleyman]

Culbertson getting a start

 

[Kelleyman]

Duran a day off too

 

[DT LUNA]

Duran a day off too

Happy to see Bubba getting good playing time.

 

[DT LUNA]

Happy to see Bubba getting good playing time.

On a small sample size, surprised to see Bubba's BA .264

 

[WastinSomeTime]

Yeah, I don't they are going to sit the player of the week and one of the hottest bats in MLB on the bench or move him to DH for very many games.

 

[DT LUNA]

Yeah, I don't they are going to sit the player of the week and one of the hottest bats in MLB on the bench or move him to DH for very many games.

True enough but Huff could DH/PH/C some. If not why is he up here?

 

[BULLPEN FAILURE]

Did Huff get called up?

 

[DT LUNA]

Did Huff get called up?

Jeff Wilson predicted Huff and Yerry would be called up. That prompted the Huff discussion.

 

[BULLPEN FAILURE]

Jeff Wilson predicted Huff and Yerry would be called up. That prompted the Huff discussion.

he was 0-2 on his predictions. I prefer to leave the discussion to the minds here.

 

[saddles]

Yeah, I don't they are going to sit the player of the week and one of the hottest bats in MLB on the bench or move him to DH for very many games.

Yeah, it didn't make any sense to bring him up. That is why it surprised me to have Wilson mention him.
