Gallo seems to have some sort of minor injury situation going on. Would be nice to be able to sit him for at least 3-4 days straight to recharge. Let Profar cover his spot

I can't wait to see the lineup card tomorrow with Elvis back in the fold.

I can confirm that odor is still the everyday second basemen.

I guess I'm not so stoked about Elvis coming back anymore.

Why not keep Trevino up? Let him grow on the job. It worked once at catcher.

By 2020, we'll have several additional SPs ready.
DEWDs (A+)
Hernandez (21-RHP): 10 GS, 57.1 IP, 77 SO, 2.20 ERA, 0.94 WHIP <- About to be 22
Arredondo (21-RHP): 10 GS, 55.1 IP, 62 SO, 2.28 ERA, 0.99 WHIP <- Just turned 21

Hernandez was promoted to AA Frisco. He is 1st game was the day I originally posted those numbers.

At AA:
4.0 IP, 7 H, 6 ER, 4 BB, 1 SO (6/11)
5.0 IP, 5 H, 4 ER, 7 BB, 3 SO (6/18)

That's a 10.0 ERA.

Trevino got sent back down to Frisco

NOT SO FAST AMIGO.....

Odor not in the lineup tonight - Profar playing second. And all the roster moves have yet to be announced.

JD said they're likely to rotate Profar and IKF in to spell AB, Odor, Elvis and Chirinos. Said IKF will be the secondary catcher to Chirinos and that Profar and Odor will likely both play about 5 games/ week.

I can live with that. At least they're giving Profar a fair shake. Profar is outplaying Odor by a substantial margin this year.

Ya....if they significantly play Odor over Profar, I'm officially done with this management team.

Need to root for Profar to keep outplaying odor so they can't pull a fast one.

I think they'd love nothing more than to put odor in everyday and make Profar ride the pine, but they don't want to look stupid and suffer the fan backlash by doing so.

Why would you root for one player to outplay another player on the team you root for? Especially when one has a contract that can significantly handicap the team if he doesn't perform. Best case scenario for the team is for both Odor and Profar to play great, trade Elvis and Beltre at the deadline, then plug in Pro at SS and IKF at 3B.

Nobody seems to agree with me, but from what I've seen the last 2 years, Odor is not going to get fixed at the major league level. He needs to go down to triple A and work on many aspects of his game.

Because he isn't a Rangers fan. He is an Astros troll who is a sock of Astros4545. He doesn't like Odor and every post he makes is designed to dig at Odor and try to stir up Rangers fan animosity against him.

He has softened his approach since I asked the Mods to deal with him, yet he can't help himself and continues to come here to post, as if he were a Rangers fan.

You're wrong.

Check out my posting history. I spend more time on the tears thread than anywhere else and I have a ton of blue stars.

I don't know what a "tears thread" is... You have a ton of blue stars, I'm guessing because you post on the Premium Board.

It is a troll account.

You have 196 posts in MLB & Other. The last 100 have been since April 15, of which at least 51 includes Odor's name. All have been have been negative towards Odor.

You are not a Rangers fan... and if I could search back past 100 posts, I bet we'd fine even more...

Other than Odor... I'm not sure if you really know that much about any of the other players on the roster because the only players you seem to know... are the ones you'd use to replace Odor.

Kauffman Stadium is a great place to watch a game. Haven't been since the latest renovation but I'm sure it's still great.

CHOO with the fly ball the accidently goes over the fence.

And red dress behind home plate.

Went to the A&M vs KU basketball game back in January and spent a night in KC. Fun town, would definitely want to go for a Rangers game

Profar is 2nd in hits, 1st in doubles, 1st in triples, 3rd in rbi (1 behind Gallo), 770 OPS (odor 600) and oh yea, he hasn't been caught stealing this season (odor has 5!). Yea, let's sit Profar...

People get mad at me, but I wouldn't be saying it if Profar's Resume wasn't much better than odors

See. Just more trolling.

Please. Give us this "resume" that he brings to the table.

I'm as happy as any Rangers fan with what Profar has done for 2 weeks. 14 Games.

He has tremendous upside and he has 13 Errors, this season. In 66 Games.

Choo is quietly having a good season. Wonder if we could get any trade offers for him if we ate some of the contract?

I'm guessing we would have to eat around half, and/or find someone to swap bad contracts with? Either way, I'd like to move him, as long as we don't eat the whole contract, unless of course we get a HUGE prospect back.

I would almost unload him for nothing, as long as the the team is willing to take on most of the contract. He's only keeping Calhoun's spot warm.

With Fister (DL10) and Perez (DL60) SPs are on the move.
YoMen (AAA) and Gallardo (AAA) have both been brought to the Majors.

That means Richelson Pena (AA) was promoted to AAA and started tonight for Round Rock.

He was at AA: 11 GS, 2.43 ERA, 1.14 WHIP, 66.1 IP, 54 K.

Tonight @ AAA: 5.0 IP, 6 ER, 10 H, 1 BB, 2 SO.

I mentioned Jonathan Hernandez having been bumped up to AA from A+ and has 2 GS at AA.

Hoping to see both Pena and Hernandez settle in on their new teams soon. As well as YoMen on his new team.

I don't know if the stats back it up, but this team seems to piss away more bases loaded situations than any team I've ever watched. I'm sure the heavy K count with the team has a lot to do with it. ****ing brutal to watch

Choo will be an interesting case.

He is predominately (although not exclusively) a DH. That eliminates most of the NL.

As of now, NYY, Cleveland and Houston with WCs: BoSox and Seattle, without any else really sniffing around.

Cano will be back for Seattle. LAA finds out in 2 weeks if Ohtani returns.

Not sure a market will open up for him.
