Retire #10 and #29

The Rangers need to make honoring these two club legends a priority in 2019. Michael Young spent nearly his entire career for Texas and is Rangers baseball personified. While he may not have been the best player to don the Rangers uniform, what he means to the franchise is unmatchable and is deserving of retirement. Nobody will ever wear the number 10 for Texas again nor should they.

While Adrian Beltre may have only retired at the end of 2018, nobody that plays for the Rangers need attempt to wear the number 29. Beltre cemented himself as a Rangers legend in his time here and when he’s inducted into the Hall of Fame in a few years, it likely will be as a Texas Ranger. El Capitan has made his mark in Arlington sure to stand the test of time.
