Gallo becomes Rangers' backup plan in center field

Joey Gallo moves around really well for a big man.

At 6-foot-5 and 250 pounds, it has become apparent to anyone who has watch the Texas Rangers the past two seasons that he's not just some big donkey, as he likes to say.

He moves so well that the Rangers coaches are convinced that he can be their backup center fielder.

That's who would get the first crack in center if Delino DeShields needs a few innings or a day off.
