Wow, it's going to be the best fielding set in history.
Rangers
Murphy LF-2
Gentry LF-1 CF-1 (-3)
Martin CF-1 (-4)
Cruz RF-3
Beltre 3B-1
Elvis Andrus SS-1
Kinsler 2B-3
Moreland 1B-3
Martin may not get the 1 he deserves because he has not had time to get the reputation. But that kid covers some ground and has a strong accurate arm. Gentry does not get the credit/reputation he deserves because of the part time playing status so they will probably give him a 2. But he his range is as good as anyone playing today. And he too has a strong arm. It is most notable how many runners do not challenge him.
Pierzynski and Soto are tough calls. AJ has been much better of late but was dreadful at throwing out runners early. Yet at the same time the number of attempts were not as high as you might expect from a guy who was bad at throwing. So cannot say + a big number. Ditto on Soto.
