After two seasons away from the game due to reoccurring shoulder injuries, the Rangers are once again confident that Profar will be healthy enough to play shortstop in spring training (despite the fact that he did not throw in the Arizona Fall League playing only at the DH position for precautionary reasons).
If Profar is indeed healthy and able to resemble the player that was the No. 1 prospect in the game in 2013, Texas could have a major ace up their sleeve. The team already appears set in the middle infield after the 2015 emergence of 21-year-old Rougned Odor at second base.
