I saw Josh in center the other night, with Cruz in right and Murphy in center. That’s not their best ideal configuration, but it may be their “best” in terms of playability, as Borbon doesn’t show maturity or consistency.

An intriguing option for the Rangers is an in division trade with the A’s for a surplus outfielder, as they have Sweeney and Jackson and only need to keep one. Neither are in the Cruz/Hamilton class, or even close, but both would be upgrades overall to Borbon.

It sounds like Tony Gwynn Jr. up until the “at least average range” part. His three best skills are bunting, running to first base, and handling the bat on a hit and run?
