There will be replicas available. There will also be 50 available that are the exact ring the players are receiving.

Even if I could convince the wife to get a Home Equity loan to buy one... I just can't see having one of those if you weren't part of the organization.

Player. Sure.
FO. Sure.
Employee.

Fan?
49 year STH as a gift from the Team/Owner? Sure.
20+ yr CEO/Acct Rep of one of the distributors like Ben E. Keith? Maybe.
Someone who has watched/listened to 150 Gm/Yr for 40 years on TV/Radio? No.

Replicas (Ring/Trophy) will look fine next to my miniature Stanley Cup, but the real ring seems undeserved.

For anyone that uses Plex (and would walk me through how to share?) -- I just grabbed the entire 2023 Rangers playoffs broadcasts and would be happy to share. DM if interested. Just don't NARC on us GigEm, I don't have MLB's express written consent.

Did you get one for being in the organization? I know Cowboy staff members got them as well, whether they were players or HR

I believe it is a mix of silver and white gold.

Well, players rings might be platinum

Any idea on costs of both? I'm only looking to get a replica for myself, but genuinely curious as to how much the 50 exact rings will go for.

There are different tiers of replicas

The player ring is…a lot more

I know Boch wants to show confidence in Leody but with a righty on the mound I'd be more inclined to start Janko. I have way more confidence in him putting together a productive AB over Leody.

Lol you may be right in the short term, but Leody has a higher career WAR than Jankowski and Jankowski has played like 8 more years. Why is everyone ****ting on Leody so much? He might not be an all star and he might get off to a slow start this year, but he's a solid MLB player

Fair. I suppose I'm just getting frustrated with him sucking since the first half of last season and Janko being great in his limited opportunities. Our depth out OF is too great to fool around with Leody too long. Hope he turns it around.

I have the same attitude. Lots of fans really eager to get rid of the guy when CF was a black hole for years.

He's 25 years old and looks like a freaking Byron Buxton starter kit. He very well might not ever get to that level, but he is a very good talent. And he fits in the clubhouse, which is a big deal.

He batted .233 with a .641 OPS in the 2nd half last year and then proceeded to bat .175 in the postseason. He hasn't been average or above average since June of last season. Last night he couldn't even get a sac bunt down….

Im not quite ready to give up on the guy but after looking at his splits for his career every season he's dropped off BIGLY when June/ July comes around.


Now that Langford is here the pressure is on for him to turn it around.

Cool ring ceremony. The players seemed like they were getting a kick out of the ring there at the end.

And it looks like they fixed the banner thankfully

Good lord. Taveres has basically played 1 1/2 years as a starter. In that time, he's hit .264, with 25 SB, 19 HR and 101 RBI. That's pretty damn good for a 9th place hitter. Not to mention he's a gold glove caliber fielder.

Here's a news flash. The Rangers aren't going to have all-stars top to bottom in the lineup. I'll take a guy who plays great defense in center, hits above 250 with a bit of power and can steal a base at the bottom of the order every.damn.day.and.twice.on.sunday. I'm old enough to remember all of the stiffs we've rolled out in CF - Gary Pettis, Cecil Espy, Damon Buford, Laynce Nix, Juan Beniquez. etc.

We could do one hell of a lot worse than Leody in CF. Rant over.

Catcher is a little bit different of a position of value than outfielder. But you already knew that.
