Short term problem perhaps.........Gallo is not a left-fielder, and we/us know it.....Short term fix........However, it wouldn't surprise me to see the Rangers give Joey a real shot at 3rd in the near future.....Thus, LF is open to whomever wants to 'assume-the-position'

Just don't see Joey at 3B until Beltre gone. Defensively Guzman is an upgrade.

We are going to add DDJ and Odor soon so what happens then? 2 guys have to go down and one stays to be backup CF. they already picked up the Seattle discard. Rua goes down before him. I think Tocci is gone too and at some point you have to deal with Calhoun. A lot to consider

I've never felt good about a fit for Calhoun

Question - Is Calhoun bat that much better than Guzman bat and outstanding defense?

If not then he has to beat out Choo who despite batting horribly lately score four times at lead off.

Ughhh I wish we could move Choo and his contract so badly!

I get your point, but this is a terrible analogue IMO.

Do you always have to take shots at me?

There aren’t that many posters left, excuse me for trying to add value to the limited dialogue we’ve had on this board compared to previous years.

No, and trust me I don't. I pass on many, many opportunities. ha

But Tyler, if you're going to toss me softballs, night-in/out, I tend to take an occasional easy way out. Think that's call life 101.

Agree totally on Guzman, and I didn't make my thoughts known - exactly anyway - regarding 3rd.

I'm thinking the Rangers will try to move AB much sooner than later. Am I one-of-one?

You need a tissue, Nancy?

I couldn’t find any after Georgia won in overtime of the semi finals last year.

If you even had the balls to list a favorite college team I might take that with more than a grain of salt.
