With Nomar Mazara hitting the DL a couple of days ago, top prospect Willie Calhoun got his chance to make his 2018 debut for the Texas Rangers. A lefty slugger, many fans were ready to see Calhoun make his mark in Arlington and were disappointed it took this long to get him here. Now the question, is Willie Calhoun here to stay?
To answer in short, yes. Calhoun was called up as a replacement for Nomar Mazara who hit the DL with a wrist sprain. While Mazara may need more than just a 10-day DL stint, it’s not like he’s going to be out for a long time.
