Assuming Carter and Langford both eventually make it and stick, that's two OF. So one of Garcia and Taveras will have to go. Not sure how many years of team control Taveras and Garcia have, but that factors i to the equation as well (and gives more value, the more they have left).

My thoughts exactly, and Taveras is 24 vs Adolis/30. That has to be a consideration as well.

I'm not ready to waive the white flag on the playoffs, but I think most here would agree that as constructed, this team cannot win this year in the playoffs. We just don't have any reliable high leverage guys in the bullpen with confidence.

So while we can salvage and make the post season, once the front office makes the decision to bring up Carter instead of Harris or Foscue, that tells me that they know they can't win the world series this year, so they're going to try and season Carter up here and get an idea of if he can handle it.


Or they think Carter is better than both Harris and Foscue (which he is). You're crazy if you think this front office is throwing in the towel when we're only .5 game out of the playoffs and have several games
Left with the teams in front of us.
For a 10 day injury replacement, they call up a guy not on the 40... I think the front office is telling us more than you think it is. I think Carter is better than those other guys too, but there are long term implications to starting Carter's clock now by putting him on the 40 and calling him up.

As mentioned by an earlier poster, now we have to cut someone off the 40 too, for a 10 day call up (supposedly) you wouldn't think this would be the move.

My whole point which seems to keep getting lost, is that if you make a long term move like bringing up your top prospect, you do it because you're going to keep him in the lineup and play him. He can't be a star for us if he can't hit lefties, and right now he can't hit lefties, so we have to get him at bats against them to see if he can continue to develop.
The new CBA says that September callups don't start counting time. It was a change.

If he was the best option for 10 days, if Ornelas (IF) and Harris aren't the guys, then you need someone who provides you the best option. Jung and Miller are you other options. Miller just started a rehab in AA.

That's still a lineup I'm confident can put up 6 runs any given night.

Need the starting pitching to shove and the bullpen just not to suck complete donkey balls and maybe we can make this a race down the stretch.

Agreed. As long as Garver's bat stay hot. It's about time for Heim to start getting his **** together too. His bat is critical if we're to have any success to finish the season.

Still no word on the 40 man roster move. Is this normal?

EDIT; The Rangers are showing 41 players on their 40 man online.

Heck yeah, seems super humble. And smart considering he was committed to Duke when we drafted him!

So if the Rangers want to put someone not on the 40 as of August 1 on their post season roster to take Miller's spot, they need the commissioner's permission.

Oh well, guess he would've scored anyway after Duran messed up a fairly routine play.
