Right now, he’s not anywhere close to a top 50 prospect.

…because he isn’t an idiot. You don’t trade young, team-controlled talent like that for…well, just about anything when you’re as stocked as the Rangers are. Truth be told, I am always shocked anyone brings these guys up as trade pieces, I know they have a lot of infielders but when that is a luxury you have you are in a better position than about 29 other ballclubs.

But that doesn’t change the fact that he’s a platoon player, because he sucks at hitting RHP….no matter how much you pay him.

Center Parra
Right Upton
Eaton your fourth out fielder with spot starts?
Any thoughts?

Preferably Kubel. KT likes defense outfields Kubel is the weaker outfielder. Well see my guess is Upton or Kubel are gone soon

Trade Upton already American League hopefully and I want to see what he gets us cause it should be good or he plays for Az. I personal think KT should keep Kubel in left, Parra in center and Upton in right. Leaving Ross as fourth outfielder who can relieve all three outfield spots. Eaton is the next guy up if one goes.

I think he can move Upton for an aging bat with a bad contract and an overrated reliever. Upton just doesn’t seem hard-nosed and gritty enough.
