This picture is from the Texas Rangers page on Facebook. It shows the newest Texas Ranger -- Shin-Soo Choo (formerly of the Cincinnati Reds). Choo will be the lead-off hitter, and play left field. This is the second big-name player the Rangers acquired this off-season -- the first being slugger and first baseman Prince Fielder, in a trade with the Detroit Tigers (for Ian Kinsler). The Rangers have also gotten another young outfielder who has good potential for developing into a power hitter (Michael Chioce from the Oakland A's).
These new acquisitions should beef up the offensive power, and it was done without losing any pitchers (or big prospects). I'm starting to feel pretty good about the Rangers' chances next year.
