Rougned Odor has a knack for starting off slow. In 2020, he will get the trust of Ranger’s faithful back.

I’m very high on Rougned Odor, and his struggles are evident. Up to this point in Rougie’s career, he has been labeled as a second half hitter, but in 2020, he will leave Arizona healthy and swinging a hot bat. I predict that Odor will hit over .400 in Spring Training this year, and will take that success into the season. I believe Odor can be an All-Star caliber player, with All-Star caliber talent, and in 2020 that will come to fruition. This success will lead to the most #12 jersey sales in Arlington since his debut, and Rangers fans will get to see the full potential of Rougned Odor. He will be the 2020 Hunter Pence.
