Long debated has been the topic of the Texas Rangers draft strategy and how it has impacted their minor league and major league talent in recent years. Oft known as a team that opts for potential over proven ability, the club has drafted and produced prospects with some of the best individual tools seen around the league. Joey Gallo, Sam Huff and more represent the elite power Texas loves. Dillon Tate and Hans Crouse show that the Rangers like to take the risk on the ace potential if it’s available to them. While this strategy has paid off in players like the aforementioned Gallo, it also has landed Texas some duds, to be expected from a high-risk, high-reward method of drafting talent.
