BREAKING: Rangers Made HUGE Trade with Nationals.. But Gave Up TOO MUCH??

33 comments

1. I wouldn't say Texas got fleeced, none of these guys were in the top 100 and Texas has a bottom tier farm. and Texas kept their main prospects in Walcott and Scarborough,

2. I think the rangers thought they were talking to the tigers for skubal 😂

3. Gavin Fien has less than 50 ABs in his minor league career
   Rosario is good but hasn’t pitched a full season in 2 years
   Fitz-Gerald and Cabrera have both only made it to high a
   Ortiz has been in the organization for almost 5 years and hasn’t done a whole lot

   Seems like a lot on paper but our farm system isn’t even that good. We just added a lefty with all star potential to a rotation that has 2 perennial cy young contenders for a guy who hasn’t done much as a pro and a bunch of wait and see

   We also have skip who got great performances out of a bunch of garbage in Miami

4. @Fuzzy Abimelec is pronounced (Ahh-Bee-Meh-Lek). Hope that helps!

5. Now, for the big question….we know that one or two of these pitchers either signed or traded for is going down for Tommy John surgery. My money is on Gore. I hope and pray that none go down but history is not nice.

6. AS A DYING RANGERS FAN LETS GOOOO

7. we cant develop prospects so i love this trade

8. Just because teams give up a handful of players for 1 doesn't mean fleeced.

9. Ok Braves let’s do something

10. Rangers won the deal

11. Weston Wilson to the o's?

12. Wow I’m shocked that the rangers gave up Gavin Fein

13. Rangers are pretty good about fixing pitchers, Gore might be in perfectly good hands.

14. Can't wait for my hometown adjacent goes 0-162

15. I’m a rangers fan and i hope we keep adding players the most 3 players i hope we get is luis arrez, michael conforto, engenio suarez

16. Sucks, Yankees fan here and was hoping to get Gore😔

17. But no way the Yankees would have given up this much!

18. Nah the rangers are not going to regret this trade. With a real analytics team gore is gonna level up with the rangers

19. As a rangers fan, let’s not forget that there’s no guarantee that prospects pan out. 5 sounds like a lot but what are the odds that all 5 of them become All stars?

20. Rangers won the trade. They didn’t give up a prospect in the top 100

21. Both Ryan and Jordan Zimmerman are both first ballot candidates for the HOF in 2027. I don't think the Nationals have their own HOF yet

22. Out of those 5 prospects, the only one who could reasonably make an MLB debut before 2027 with the Rangers was Ortiz, and a lot would need to go wrong for that to happen. Everyone else has other prospects in line ahead of them at their positions or just won’t be ready soon.

    It’s fair to say at the outset that both teams ‘won’ today. Rangers’ pitching staff can work on an all-star pitcher and the Nats get more talent to play with in their rebuild

23. Rangers for sure…Ortiz 24 and barely seen triple A
    Fien is the big piece in this trade and he probably won’t see the majors for 4/5 years

24. You’re underestimating Gore…by a LOT.

25. METS' fan here. I sure miss BRANDON NIMMO. I HOPE HE HAS AN MVP TYPE SEASON.

26. Rangers fan here, we finna be 1st in pitching 30th in hitting 😂

27. The Fuzzy curse continues lol

28. None of the haul is top 100 and we can’t develop😢

29. Fleeced? Time will tell but Texas needs their core to stay healthy if they want to get off the ground.

30. It’s not really a fleece I thought so at first but I think he will be better pitching in globe life field

31. Fuzzy!! Would you ever consider bringing back the immaculate grid to the recaps? Love the vids bro

32. AJ traded are whole farm system away. iam a padre fan. This reminds me of a AJ move .AJ is the Padres Gm. Padres ranked last in the MLB farm system. Texas better be careful.

33. I'm a Rangers fan and am happy with this trade.
