What Does This Mean?

While predicting baseball is a bit of a science, it’s definitely not an exact one. Players get hurt or regress while others take the world by storm out of nowhere. However, if you look at how the core of this club is formed and then extrapolate out that a portion of the current prospects will be impact players, you come to the conclusion of a fairly successful future roster. Obviously outside help will be needed, still the past couple of seasons really have been a masterful job of securing the future of the team by the front office.

The next few years will see waves of young players making their way to what will be the newly opened Globe Life Field and making their mark on the club and the fans. Texas has the ability to continue to develop a core that should be hitting their primes right when the cavalry of young talent arrives to the battlefield that is Major League Baseball.
