When will Joe Palumbo make his Texas Rangers debut?

Spring training is the opportune time to prospect watch. It gives fans a glimpse at some of the organization’s most promising young talents. It’s also a rare time in which prospects matchup against major leaguers. One Texas Rangers’ prospect who’s drawing a lot of attention already this spring… left-hander Joe Palumbo.

How can you not root for the Rangers’ #6 prospect? Formerly a 30th round draft pick, Palumbo gives hope to all ballplayers who aren’t the creme of the crop among their draft class. Standing at 6’1”, 168 LBs, he also gives hope to all those who aren’t built like a “traditional” big league pitcher.
