When it comes to second baseman, the Rangers Marcus Semien is number three on the MLB.com Top Ten list. When it comes to second baseman any Rangers fan would want on his team, there’s no question Semien is first. He got off to a slow start in his first year […]
The list of Top Ten first baseman is out. As with the catcher list, there is no Ranger. Nathanial Lowe did not make it. But, it’s a pretty deep position. And it’s a subjective list. Lowe had to suffer the indignation of being the only Ranger infielder not to make […]

In an offseason as dull as a Super Bowl halftime show, any news is news. And at least the Rangers have some news to report. The Rangers have reached agreements with seven of the eight arbitration eligible players on the their roster. Nathaniel Lowe, Dane Dunning, Jonah Heim, Leody Taveras, […]
Merry Christmas to everyone in RR3 Nation. Mitch Garver signed with Seattle so the Rangers need a DH, a closer, and an starting pitcher who can start the season. Other than that, they are looking strong.
