One scout compared Rangers phenom Wyatt Langford to Mike Trout, and Langford beamed when I relayed that to him.
Speaking of Trout, his timing is off — 18 K’s in 41 ABs, .220 heading into Thursday — and one scout says “he’s doubting himself.”

The Rangers did well to bring in Michael Lorenzen for $4.5M plus incentives. Might this affect a potential pursuit of Jordan Montgomery?
The Astros seem like another candidate for Montgomery.
The Dodgers are great but one scout called their infield defense, even with terrific 1B Freddie Freeman, “the worst in the game.” Early speculation for next winter: Padres SS Ha-Seong Kim as Dodgers target?
Rivals say they believe the Red Sox will continue to sit out the winter. Wonder what Netflix, set to do a documentary on Boston’s 2024 season, thinks.
The Red Sox are seemingly done with the free agent market.
Not only is big pickup Lucas Giolito out for the year, probably their most interesting player, Alex Verdugo is gone.
This could be a real ratings loser.
