Continued Hope

Rangers fans, I know patience is running thin with Rougned Odor. He’s had his ups and downs over the last few years, but the Rangers felt like he was a real talent when they signed him long term. The trends he has shown over the last year and a half show very positive signs for a player who seems overwhelmed by the big leagues at times. Chris Woodward has done a good job of getting him information to benefit his career, now it’s just a matter of him putting in the work to get himself there. He’s always been known as a hard worker and has grinded out some lengthy struggles. Now, it’s time to give him the support he needs, and that starts by not giving up on the young second baseman.
