Like the rest of the series, a good and interesting read.

The worst pitching coach in the league is going to “fix” Casher and Ross? Highly doubtful.

The Rangers do have another assets, not mentioned; Jon Daniels, hungry ownership and (at long last) a retractable roof stadium on the way. Daniels is not a perfect GM but he’s proven to be smart and creative. Ownership is not going to let a few million dollars stop them from going after any player they feel fits. Free agents, particularly pitchers, avoided Arlington for decades because of the heat & hitter-friendly environment, now changing to air conditioning & likely less outbound winds. Bannister is an ideal mgr for this franchise & works well with Daniels. As currently constructed, there are questions. But Odor, Profar, Mazara, Bush, Gallo, & promising minor league pitchers Mendez & Martin have kept the Rangers from becoming an “old” team. (wait til you see super prospect, OF Leodys Taveras upside) We’ll see about 2017, but there are still many reasons to believe Texas will find a way to remain competitive while attracting more free agents in the future.

I agree with everything thing you said but Matt Bush is in his 30’s already after the time in prison. They definitely have him as a cheap asset the next few years though bc he isn’t even eligible for arbitration until after next season

The Rangers seem to be a team held together by duck tape. So many of their players have question marks. If they get off to a slow start they have so many trade assets that it could make for an interesting trade deadline. Darvish, Lucroy, Napoli, etc… could really help the Rangers restock their minor leagues.
