Jurickson Profar has been the Netherlands spark plug

The Texas Rangers are now two weeks away from playing meaningful baseball. While most of the guys are in Surprise, Arizona putting the final touches on Spring Training, Jurickson Profar is seamlessly putting an entire country on his back.

Projected to be the Rangers opening day left fielder, Profar has had a fair amount of ups-and-downs to start his career. The top rated prospect in all of baseball heading into 2013, Profar would debut with the club the same year. After a lackluster 85 game stint, Profar would miss all of 2014 and most of 2015 due to shoulder injuries.
