Rangers opening day roster projection 1.0: How the bullpen battle is shaking out, bubble players and more

SURPRISE, Ariz. -- The Rangers began full-squad workouts Monday. They don't play their first exhibition until Saturday. The season's start is still more than a month away.

But it is never too early here at Rangers Roster Projection Central to feed all the data into our new, very expensive and fancy computing machine to come up with the highly anticipated projected opening day roster for the Rangers.

Scientifically speaking, our process is 100-percent accurate on some occasions.

So without further wait, here is who will step on the line for the hype of opening day 2019 at Globe Life Park in Arlington:

Starters (5)

Who: LHP Mike Minor, RHP Lance Lynn, LHP Drew Smyly, RHP Shelby Miller, RHP Edinson Volquez

What we think we know: If everybody stays healthy, the rotation is set.
