The Texas Rangers’ three highest-ranked prospects who are position players haven’t played above Class A and will start next season there.
Leody Tavares, Julio Pablo Martinez and Bubba Thompson are also all center fielders, but that will work itself out at some point.
As the Rangers rebuild again in 2019, they actually won’t be waiting on any position players. The Rangers believe they have a nucleus of young position players already on the roster to build around for the future.
These young players aren’t strangers to anyone, and most are young in age only.
