I say true all that. I think this F.O. must go. but the reality is....Joe Pohlad isnt going to make that move until he sees firsthand what happens to the boys in a men's world. At least for one season. I find it interesting how we keep hearing them say that they need a rh bat so badly. Whats the logic there? I saw things change due to injuries last year, but let's be real here. They need a front line ss. They need a #1 starter. They needed another catcher. And the bullpen is at least average if Alcala comes back and one of the left over starters slots in at long relief.
Joey Gallo is a good ballplayer. it wasn't that long ago that I am sure he won a gold glove for the Rangers. in my opinion, why did they need another rh bat anyway? They already have Vasquez, Jeffers, Miranda, Farmer, Buxton, and Celestino, Garlick and Polanco as a switch hitter.
Signing Gallo wasn't necessarily a bad move, with him, Buxton, and maybe Kepler, that is a world class defensive outfield. Does it open the door for some trades. Yes I'm sure, but let's not be that quick to judge Gallo.
