I honestly dont know what the Texas Rangers are doing

 

Dealing the most expensive of their too many middle infielders and getting what should be a huge upgrade at first base. Their first basemen put up a .700 OPS last year. Looks like a smart deal for both sides.

I like the idea of giving Profar more time....do not like the idea of swapping Kinsler for Fielder depending on the money going back and forth.

Slugged .413 and plays a below-average 2B. Maybe WAR isn't everything?

 

Maybe slugging % isn't everything.

 

Also, he referring to bWAR, which most people consider less accurate than fWAR, which graded Kinsler out at a 2.5 WAR, which seems more appropriate. Still though, it was higher than Prince's 2.2 fWAR last yaer.
