That line up looks so much better than last nights. Then add in Yordan and its full LOD.
I'm guessing Reddick will go to the bench when Yordan comes back. Tucker is inconsistent but he's earned the slot over Reddick this season IMO. I'd put Yordan 5th and move Gurriel to 7th.
When this season is over, the 40 man roster will be a disaster. All these A, AA players getting their debuts will make a mess of things later. Their clocks are all starting at the same time.
Agreed - Reddick's non-existent defense makes it impossible to argue that he needs to be in the lineup.tjack16 said:

I doubt it. They'll probably share time.
I really think we need to do a big shake up of the line up.
Yuli, Machete, & Reddick/TED need to be bottom 3.
I doubt George ever gets moved, but I would really
Like to mix L/R at the top. Something like Altuve, Brantley, Bregman, Jordan, Springer, Correa.
Still can't fathom why Correa is still batting 6th and Altuve still up there at 2.
Why not slide Jose and go with
Springer
Bregman
Brantley
Correa
Yuli
Altuve
Reddick
Tucker
Maldy

People resist change. Altuve is the team leader. He's been near the top of the line up for 8 years now.Ag_07 said:

If Correa is hitting .400 in the #6 hole, why would you move him around in the lineup? When a guy is raking like crazy, you don't move him around.Ag_07 said:

I will root for the rangerettes tonight only.
I, personally, don't think I'd change the lineup...except flip Yuli and Correa. Springer is coming around. Just need Altuve to figure it out.

Well for one him hitting with 7,8,9 behind him isn't ideal and for two I'd like to get him up higher for more ABs and possibly an AB in top of the 1st if Springer, Bregs, or Brantley can get on.
And yes I know Altuve is a vet, team leader, etc etc but the man is lost and is liability at the top. I don't see anything wrong with moving him for a few games to try and figure something out.
Granted the offense seems to be alright but just my 0.02.
I'm with you. Time to give Carlos a shot somewhere at 3-4-5...and see what he can do
weren't the Rangers supposed to be a halfway decent team this year?
will need a rally to avoid getting swept by the A's and falling to 3-8.
Mike Minor is who we thought he was apparently

For Yordan, its gotta be a nagging injury or he is COVID negative and is still trying to get his strength back to be in game shape. I had heard Urquidy had a rough case of COVID, so its at least plausible Yordan did too.
They have asked at one point or another and they got very little from Click & Dusty. I wouldn't be shocked if they knew off the record.Mathguy64 said:bearkatag15 said:
Good lord. What have they been doing with Yordan for the last 2 weeks? Something doesn't make sense.
ETA. Maybe one of the intrepid reporter/tweeters can, oh I don't know, maybe ask the freaking GM?
I'm willing to believe he doesn't know how 0.000000000007 grams of a banned substance got into his system. If it were 0.000000000008 grams, I'd call him a liar.
Edit: Picogram is 12 digits not 11.

Great. Fox broadcast so fake noise and fake people in the stands.

Agreed 100%

Why do we have so many games on Fox this year? That's the second one this week.
We are the most hated team in the league this year. Makes for good TV
Inspiring start.
