June 19th
What did I miss here?
I'm guessing something about juneteenth
Dallas94 told a really inappropriate joke about this time he dressed in blackface. And he thought Juneteenth was June 13th
Anyone else see some rumbling about trying Solak in CF this spring? Sounds like Woodward values Santana more as an every day utility guy and is looking for a spot to play Solak every day as well.
20 outta 30..... good quiz! Thanks
I got 26/30 but am ashamed to say one team I missed was the Rangersalvtimes said:

Ditto on missing the Rangers question. That was dirty though, trick question.

Solak is getting a bobblehead so it seems like there is some pretty good indication there will at least be an attempt to make him an everyday guy.
22 of 30. I too miss the Rangers one.

Honest question. 3 of those players have only played for the Rangers in MLB.
It was a joke, related to all the drama anything Odor related seems to generate here or elsewhere on the internet. I did take Choo. He always hits a decent amount of HRs each year and it feels like he's played for Texas for 15 years or so.
It's a tricky question because the vast majority of fans all over MLB wouldn't guess odor.DallasAg 94 said:How was that question either dirty... or a trick question?KT 90 said:Rossko said:I got 26/30 but am ashamed to say one team I missed was the Rangersalvtimes said:

I'd like to see the stats on how many times the quiz has been taken and how often each question was missed.
I got 24/30 and I'm still kicking myself for missing Pedroia and trout.
Home runs are really the only good thing that stands out about his game.DallasAg 94 said:
I'm telling you... Odor is going to be one of the All-Time greats for the Rangers.
I'm expecting this is going to be a fun season, all-around. If the SP does what I hope, it is going to be fantastic.
As it pertains to Odor, I'm really hoping this is his year.
16th Career All-Time in Rangers HRs. Likely finishes the season at #8.
+3 to tie Larry Parish for 15th.
+14 gets him tied with **drum roll** Josh Hamilton1. Juan-Do: 3722. Palmeiro: 321
4. Pudge: 217
5. Beltre: 199
6. Sierra: 180
7. MYoung: 1778. Nellie Cruz: 157
9. Ian Kinsler: 1569. A-Rod: 156
11. Dean Palmer: 154
12. Teixeira: 153
13. Blalock: 152
14. Hamilton: 150
15. Parrish: 149
16. Odor: 136
Last year his WAR was -0.3
Here is what WAR translates to in MLB :
8+ - MVP quality
5+ - All star quality
2+ starter or MLB regular
0-2 Reserve
Under 0 = replacement level or minor leaguer.
Your little guy sucks. You need to accept it.
Thanks Prop! I'm intrigued by lack of new ballpark items.
They announced a Globe Life Field mini bat, replica, and t-shirt at Peek at the Park.

That is just the theme night list that requires a special ticket. We won't release the promotional item giveaways until single game tickets go on sale
That makes sense. As an avid bobblehead collector, missing two from last decade plus of ranger baseball, I'm torn on the theme nights for those. On one hand it's nice that average Joe doesn't have to worry about getting there two hours early to beat the eBay crowd, but I also hate having to buy an extra ticket when I can usually swing some from work.
If there's a way to further monetize things, teams are going to find a way to do it. Just the reality of event ticketing these days.
The turf is going down today. I'm headed over there to take some pictures. I'll post them when I get back
