Series Thread: Rangers Travel to the Great Northwest to Play Mariners 6/10-6/12

[darrylgann]

We should take series but no guarantee. Kinda doubt we see much of Beltre. And we are going through the Mariners rather quickly. And the 'Stros.

A good dose of Derek Colby and Cole will leave the M's wondering what happened.

 

[Bmurph]

Keep it rolling boys, win another series

Who are the Rangers going to draft? You following it, Bennie?

2 more picks until the Rangers draft, not sure who they will take? A's took Puk, which unfortunately for him, means he probably ends up w an injured arm or traded at the deadline one day for prospects

Fitting name

Yep. A high schooler. Ah well. See you in the new stadium, kid.

What's the scouting report on this kid?

 

[romeo212000]

Just saw. Three pitch guy with good understanding of how to pitch, but his stuff rates just a tick above average. Fastball 89-92. Sounds like a lefty junk baller.

 

[darrylgann]

Best we can do, I guess.

He's a high schooler. He may have more in the tank.

LHP Cole Ragans, North Florida Christian HS

At 6-foot-3 and 190 lbs., Ragans has the kind of build scouts love. He repeats his delivery and throws three pitches for strikes: low-90s fastball, curveball, and changeup. Ragans locates well and has drawn praise for his pitching aptitude. He's committed to Florida State.

Hoping it's under slot so they can go after some over slot stuff later.

 

[WastinSomeTime]

Gallo with his 11th HR tonight along with 2 walks. Choo 2 for 3 with a double. AJ pitched 2 1/3 and gave up 4 hits and a run but also had 3 K's.

 

[darrylgann]

With the 63rd overall pick, the Rangers select RHP Alex Speas from McEachern HS in Powder Springs, GA.

Guys on LSB seems pumped about this one. Kid wants to strike out Jose Bautista...I like him already.

 

[romeo212000]

I like guys who throw 96 at 18 years old. Needs some polishing, but I'm always a fan of potential.
