Sources say we dealt Chirinos to the Mets. That fixes everything

JD you sly sonofa*****. Everyone was expecting the zig of Lynn, but you zagged with Chirinos.

I mean, I would be slightly less upset if we find out that we also managed to ship Odor off, but not holding my breath...

Can't wait to trade Lynn next season when we suck just as bad, if not worse, and get markedly less of a return for him

Absolutely maddening. A complete failure by the front office

After he gets hurt at the end of the season to make it full force stupid.

Pretty significant asking price for Gallo...

What the hell? I had the FanGraphs prospect page ready to go so I could start talking myself into some light-hitting middle infielder and a 19 year old lefty coming off Tommy John surgery as the future cornerstones of this franchise

this team needs an Astros-like rebuild. Keeping Lynn made zero sense, as this team inst competing for anything any time soon

So with Frazier moving on, maybe we get to see Jung at 3B?

It's hilarious to look at our pitching rotation now. Lynn and a BUNCH of spares. Every single time he takes the mound and does well it's just going to be a stark reminder of how much JD ****ed this up

Purely hypothetical....

If something were to happen to Odor, does his estate still get his guaranteed money? Purely hypothetical, of course.

Probably just frees first base up for Guzman.

Guzman/Odor/Andrus/IKF going forward

I've heard rumors that supposedly the rangers will DFA Odor if they can't move him.

I'm expecting those to be false and the front office runs out Odor to torture the fan base some more.

Good god these guys are morons. I really wish they would sell the team to people who understand baseball.

That is a pathetically bad MLB starting infield. Guzman and Odor are spares, Elvis is an established good MLB player, and every time IKF does something good its impressive because he just feels like a quadruple A guy through and through. Thanks JD!

3 minor ( pun intended) trades that a baseball intern could have easily pulled off.

Who the heck is driving this **** show? Is it not obvious that Gallo and Lynn needed to be moved? They should've moved Odor to any team who would cooperate.


I wish we had a real GM / front office. What a horribly run franchise. These people are garbage.

Worst infield in MLB by a mile.

Ultimately this reeks of a "we don't want to open up the new stadium with a bunch of scrubs, so unless we get absolutely blown away by an offer we're going to roll Lance Lynn, Joey Gallo and Elvis Andrus out there as the 2021 face of the Rangers".

I mean, *someone's* gotta be made into a boblehead.

I'm still amazed by the absolute ineptitude of JD and the Ranger brass. Didn't learn a damn thing from not dealing Minor last year. This year? Even WORSE. Lynn had an even higher value, and the Rangers are CLEARLY going nowhere this season.....and probably next. Why not load up on prospects??

I'm guessing we are going to pick up Kluber's option for 2021

In fairness the Mavs have approximately 10,000,000 times more cause for optimism than the Rangers do

Man, if I'm Lance Lynn, I'm on the phone with my agent asking if it's too late to opt out for COVID.

Unfortunately we are doing just that. A bunch of scrubs plus Gallo and Lynn.

I would love to know what exactly was our asking price. Sounds like we had multiple teams bidding and still couldn't get a deal over the finish line...
