We’re a month into the 2018 season and so far many of the infrequent highlights the Texas Rangers have provided have come from watching rookies Isiah Kiner-Falefa and Ronald Guzman dip their toes into Major League waters. Both played five games with AAA Round Rock before getting the call, and both have held their own for the last three weeks.
If you’re hoping to look beyond those two, or you’re hoping to turn to the Rangers’ higher-level farm teams to see some kind of encouraging storyline or interesting prospect or future contributor, or you’re hoping for some reinforcements to maybe possibly help drag this thing out of the AL West basement, it is my unfortunate duty to inform you that it just ain’t there.
