Offseason TORP, LHRP, Lefty Masher





With not all that much to talk about right now, I'm putting out some ideas of where the Rangers might look to fill their three holes: a LHP-mashing hitter, TORP, lefty bullpen specialist. I hope you all will add others to the list to make it more comprehensive and something to reference as the offseason progresses.
