The Texas Rangers officially parted ways with first baseman Blaine Crim, sending the once heralded power hitter to the Colorado Rockies on a waiver claim.
Crim has done well at Triple-A Round Rock, and the organization has a clear path to playing first base at the major league level, but it won't be in Arlington as the big right-handed hitter is now packing his bags and heading west.
Crim takes an impressive stat line with him to the Pacific Coast League
In 378 plate appearances with Round Rock, Crim slashed .284/.373/.515 with 18 home runs, 71 RBIs, and three stolen bases.
