Pitching staff has a LOT of question marks after Darvish. Losing Holland really hurts there; I would bite the bullet and sign Jimenez given their farm system is very stocked.

Still, I would like to know who breaks camp with the team.

They should be able to put enough runs on the board, but they need to either have a SP step up big time or spend some of their trading chips for one. I still would not be shocked to see them go after Price. With chips like Profar, Odor, Alfaro I think they can get it done----IF Tampa is willing to move him.Badges? We don't need no stinkin' badges!

I think Profar plays in Arlington at least this contract and well into the next one. Odor and Alfaro, not so much. The Rangers also have a lot of mid range depth on the farm. They could trade for a one season veteran without giving up a real prospect. The quality of the one season vet is the issue.

What do you guys make of the current iteration of Michael Choice? He looks like a good enough hitter and came up as a SS, so the defense should be at least marginally acceptable. Yet the A's traded him for the wrong half of a glove platoon. Is this the utility IF/OF? Can he cover the occasional game at SS?

What does everyone expect from Tommy Hanson? He has a ton of talent, but he hasn't stayed healthy. Shoulder problems are potentially career ending. As it is, he seems to be in a hat with several others for two jobs.
He is supposed to still have an out pitch, but much less velocity. Can he make it work? Will he emerge in the rotation?
