or Mendez/Mazara. they must believe in Gallo they never part with him

I don't know why he has chris davis 2.0 written all over him. Gallo currently has a 30% strike out rate in triple a dude will be a strikeout machine his whole career

thats who i equate him to, almost a Mark Reynolds level SO rate. guess they figure they'll need power after Beltre retires?

Chris Davis would easily be the best 1st baseman he have had in a LONG time if he was still on this team...

Gallo is a strike out machine right now but so what, show me the power hitter who wasn't one at 22...

If Gallo turns out to be Chris Davis I would be perfectly fine with that :ehh:

Gallos strikeout rates have improved from 40% to 33% to 30% :leon:

He eventually adapts and has good ob%'s so we'll see in due time.Javier Baez set records for his strikeouts when he was called up and now he's at 25% :manny:

Rangers looking mighty strong:francis:

Starting pitchers are garbage after Hamels and Yu...

Pitching staff is constantly injured from the end of june to mid august EVERY YEAR...

Relievers are garbage all the way around...

Wish we would have legit got at least a number 3 starter...Colby Lewis is our legit number 3 and that is because dude has gotten INSANE run production the last two years...

But I guess the team feels different because as deep as their farm system was they could have easily gotten a number 3 starter if they wanted to...

But that lineup:wow:
If one more starter can step up and the bullpen can get it together:wow: Easier said than done but:wow: But your absolutely right somehow a couple of arms gotta become reliable for them in the postseason.
