Gavin Williams + Cade Horton are the only 1st rd college arms who have better stats/more IP than Jack (132 IP) + Kumar (76 IP, TJ Surgery): Bachman - 31 IP Bednar - 0 IP Mcgreevy - 62 IP, 5 ERA Hoglund - 32 IP, 6 ERA Wicks - 9.72 ERA Cusick - 0 IP Hughes - 0 IP Hjerpe - 0 IP

Let’s get some clarification, what are your qualifiers to be considered an ace? Cy Young (how many), All-Star (how many), how many seasons of top level pitching? What statistic and how long does he have to remain at that or better to be considered an ace?

It’s a fine line between too little too late and getting hot at the right time. If the Rangers can continue this hot streak through the rest of the year and make the playoffs, there is a serious chance of a deep run. They don’t make it, the positives essentially mean nothing 😩

Ketel either hates us or really wants us to trade for him 😭

Yeah this ain’t it…

What a pathetic secondary lead by IKF

IKF blew it, but Will Smith earned it/deserved it.

Intriguing pickups. MacIver was a stud of a hitter at AAA in 2024 and 2025. Not a lot of success in the big leagues last year. Otañez is a high strikeout guy but definitely has issues putting people on. High ceiling, very low floor.

The Texas Rangers today announced the club's 2026 Major League coaching staff under new manager Skip Schumaker.

Would love to have the player but the price tag was never feasible, sadly 🥲

If Cardinals are in a true rebuild, I would be calling about a Willson Contreras/Joc Pederson + prospects swap. Would save STL $18-36M in future cash + get a couple of solid prospects while Rangers get a starting C/keep Higgy at backup/DH while getting Joc’s bat out of the lineup

😏

I think/hope they swing for the fences and go for Contreras from STL. They gotta move off the 5 C’s they have on the 40 man. Motivation for STL is to drop $$$ owed after ‘26 to lowest in MLB and go get some big names like Skubal, Bednar, Vaughn (if he has another big year), etc

Still traumatized from the last UCSB first round pick from the Rangers 😭

Win now and win later move. Not sure they make this move if they aren’t confident they can get an extension done. Control thru: Leiter - 2030 Rocker - 2031 Evo - 2027 Degrom - 2028 Reset the cap tax this year and we have a solid 3-4 year controllable rotation

Calling an outing on March 4th embarrassing is the real embarrassment. Pitchers work through new pitches and different sequencing this early in spring. By the same logic we should fire Degrom into the sun or Evo and Gore after their first outings
