Re: 2012 OSFM: Texas Rangers

Thanks for posting this! I was hoping to get something posted myself but just couldn't find the time.

Looking forward to hearing what Wash decides on the lineup and rotation this coming week. Sounds like Beltre will be taking over the cleanup spot. I'd guess Elvis or Michael Young will be moving down toward the bottom, but we'll see.

Re: 2012 OSFM: Texas Rangers

Yeah I just heard about that, I'll update the 1st post.

Re: 2012 OSFM: Texas Rangers

Just FYI, Hamilton will probably be the starting LF. Borbon/Gentry are fighting for the center spot during spring training as of right now. Washington said he would like to keep Leonys the CF in AAA all year, so keep that in mind for the MLB roster. Great work guys!

Re: 2012 OSFM: Texas Rangers

Thanks for the heads up

Re: 2012 OSFM: Texas Rangers

You have Borbon on both the 25 man and the AAA roster

Michael Kirkman or one of the NRI guys will likely make the squad as the LH reliever and tateyama will likely be sent to AAA

Re: 2012 OSFM: Texas Rangers

Kelvin De La Cruz was launched into the sun today (Or traded to Cleveland, depending on which story you read)

Re: 2012 OSFM: Texas Rangers

Hey guys, I'm taking over on the Rangers for the set. I'll try to post my list in a little bit but for now if you have any questions, concerns, suggestions just PM and I'll get back to you ASAP.

Re: 2012 OSFM: Texas Rangers

Here are some links for the Rangers that will help for the minors especially. Depth chart below:

This was updated in February but should be updated once everyone is designated to their leagues towards the end of spring training

Here is some pics for the some of the prospects in the system if you need help with appearances.

I see that somebody reads the ramblings of Joey Matches, huh?

Also, reavez06 is spot-on, Scott Lucas is an amazing well of info on the Rangers minor leaguers

It's definitely not the first site I go to every morning. No, absolutely not.

Re: 2012 OSFM: Texas Rangers

In case whoever is doing the Rangers didn't know it was announced this weekend that 22 year old lefty Robbie Ross will make the OD squad as a lefty reliever.

He still has a future as a starter but for now hes going to the pen

Re: 2012 OSFM: Texas Rangers

Tateyama will begin season on DL
Borbon to AAA, will split time with Martin at CF.
Gonzalez makes team. Hernandez to AAA.
