The Texas Rangers have a number of young arms developing in the lower ranks of their minor league system. The one with seemingly the brightest future is right-hander Hans Crouse. The 20-year old skyrocketed up prospect rankings in 2018 and has all eyes on him in 2019 with Single-A Hickory.
Crouse, a 2nd round pick out of high school in 2017, got the nod as part of Single-A Hickory’s rotation to open up the 2019 season after spending much of 2018 with Low-A Spokane. Crouse’s first 3 starts with the Crawdads have been nothing short of marvelous and has fans anxious to see him climb up the ranks.
