This is my favorite type of question. And I think many in the Rangers organization would love to see it too. It means this young team is creating excitement among the fanbase, and that maybe this rebuild won t last too long.
However, this is where I come in and by no ill intention spoil the day. Of all the accomplishments that the Rangers are capable of achieving this season, making the postseason is likely not one of them. They lack enough pitching that can provide a high number of innings over the course of the season, and though they are hitting well now, these younger hitters will be tested more and more as the season rolls along.
MLB Trade Rumors
Rays infielder/outfielder
Yoshi Tsutsugo will lose his roster spot in the near future, Marc Topkin of the Tampa Bay Times observes. Although the Rays made a fairly expensive commitment to Tsutsugo prior to 2020, the former Nippon Professional Baseball standout hasn’t lived up to a two-year, $12MM guarantee. This season has been especially rough for the 29-year-old, who has batted a miserable .167/.244/.218 with zero home runs in 87 plate appearances. The Rays still owe Tsutsugo around $5.5MM, Topkin points out, but may decide to move on anyway. Tsutsugo could stay in the organization if they send him down, but he has an assignment clause in his contract and would have to sign off on a demotion. Otherwise, Tsutsugo could collect the remaining money he’s due and try his luck in free agency again.
