In 2021 the Texas Rangers finished with the third-fewest wins in baseball. Texas won just 24 of their 57 road games as the starting pitching struggled. While they are still rebuilding, there is some excitement surrounding the Rangers 2022 campaign.
An MLB team’s farm system is their up-and-coming talent. For the Texas Rangers, their farm system is looking to help improve the Rangers standing from the 2021 season.
In 2021, Kevin Kopps was named the best player in college baseball for the Arkansas Razorbacks. Less than a year later, he was taken by the San Diego Padres in the third round of the MLB Draft. While the last few months have been full of change, the Texas native has excelled everywhere he has pitched.
On Sunday night, the Boston Red Sox added more talent to their farm system. With the fourth overall pick in the MLB Draft, the Red Sox selected shortstop Marcelo Mayer.
Teams will be looking for their next superstar to elevate their franchise to perennial contenders and hopefully World Series Champions. While the players selected this year will vary from All-Star to career minor leaguer, they all have the potential to be difference makers.
In just about three weeks players from around the country will hear their names called at the MLB Draft. As teams get ready to scour over hundreds of players, I will take a look at how the draft will play out.
The Vanderbilt ace is still the top pitcher in the MLB Draft in July. Although he has fallen down a couple of spots on some boards, his talent is undeniable. Jack Leiter has the stuff, pitchability, and pedigree to be an ace at the major league level.
The Major League Baseball first-year player draft is only months away, and anticipation is building over who the Boston Red Sox will select. Boston will be picking fourth which is the first time they have had a top-five pick since 1967.
Last weekend was frantic as many of Major League Baseball’s seller’s sought takers for their movable pieces for prospects as they look beyond 2020.
