Raising Arizona V. 2019

Hope Springs eternal! Before I officially pivot to video, lemme just say, in the words of an opposing scout, “The Rangers have gone from zero-to-sixty with regards to technology.” He wasn’t lyin’. You’ve heard all the reports this Spring and it ain’t a joke: there’s gadgets everywhere. There’s cameras and tri-pod mounted tablets behind the pitchers’ warmup mounds. There’s Trackman radars mounted high up on the backstops. There’s digital doohickeys on the ends of the hitters’ bats and there’s fancy data-delivering sleeves on the pitchers’ arms. There’s a wall with “X”s painted on it as targets for weighted balls.
