Rangers get NOT ONE Top 10 prospect from the Yankees and are now paying THREE players to play for the Yankees.
Jesus. You could find 3 drunks living in the tunnel system under where the Stardust used to be who could run the Rangers front office better. I thought adding Chris Young was supposed to help.
This ownership group/front office is beyond helpless. They have ruined this franchise.
Just to add to that post … it’s been quoted so I won’t edit it…
But I would actually say that I don’t see it as a negative for the Rangers that they opted to pay the Yankees in order to get better prospects back.
Like if you’re going to rebuild … get the best prospect return you can.
Maybe no elite prospects came back … but with Jung, Leiter, a top pick next year and money to spend … Rangers should have some quality prospects.
Astros and Cubs had to go through a lot of bad seasons, too.
wait, the cubs WENT THROUGH a lot of bad seasons or are still going through
Cubs finished 5th in the NL Central 5 straight years (2010-2014).
Two years later (2016) they won the World Series.
And Epstein had the luxury of giving out bad contracts (like 8/$184 for Jason Heyward) and trading away part of the club’s future (like Gleyber Torres to rent Aroldis Chapman).
(Astros were similarly as bad between 2009-2014.)
This is the last year for the Astros IMO, and that is said as a fan. They did pick up 2 closers from Seattle and Miami. Kinda looks like they are really pushing for this year. Carlos will prob be a yank/sock after this yearCubs finished 5th in the NL Central 5 straight years (2010-2014).

Point being the Cubs core could’ve held together longer if they made better decisions and took a longer view …. but they were in all-or-nothing mode.

they went through a great deal more than those 5 bad years, was raised in a household with a cub fan as a father
Where are the Yankees getting all these prospects to make these moves?
I say the same about the Dodgers. How is their farm system not depleted by now.
And supposedly they are getting the Cubs to pay all of Rizzo's salary.Where are the Yankees getting all these prospects to make these moves?
