Good picks … probably shouldn’t question any more. ha ha .. well done.

No do question. I’ve been known to change my mind.

Possible change. I know Frank Howard put up huge power numbers but almost all of them were with the Washington Senators before they moved to Texas.
I would suggest Julio Franco. Here is the entry the blog Texas Ranger trades,
2B: Julio Franco – Julio has a .307 career batting average with the Rangers, which is 3rd on the all-time list. He is also 5th in stolen bases. He was a three-time All-Star for the Rangers (winning the All-Star game MVP once) and won a batting title.
