Draft remains just a different roll of the dice for Rangers

Of all the things they have done in the Jon Daniels era, from trading for Cliff Lee and Cole Hamels to signing Adrian Beltre and Yu Darvish, from the two World Series to the uncorked champagne therein, none rattles the brainpan as much as the Texas Rangers’ performance in the MLB draft.

We’ll see this draft’s group in Arlington, maybe, in 2023?

Where’s the Dak Prescott? Where’s even the Yogi Ferrell in this year’s draft class?
