Yes, we know that this is taking a while!
As many of you know, we here at Notinhalloffame.com are slowly generating the 50 of each major North American sports team. That being said, we have existing Top 50 lists out and we always consistently look to update them when we can and based on necessity. As such, we are very happy to present our fourth revision of our top 50 Texas Rangers of all-time.
As for all of our top 50 players in baseball we look at the following:
1. Advanced Statistics.
2. Traditional statistics and how they finished in the American League.
3. Playoff accomplishments.
4. Their overall impact on the team and other intangibles not reflected in a stat sheet.
This one went a complete overhaul, which was reflected in our top five as seen below.
The complete list can be found here, but as always, we announce our top five in this article. They are:
5. Frank Howard
Our top five remains the same, but there two new additions, and one slight elevation.
Elvis Andrus moved up one spot from #15 to #14.
Pitchers, Lance Lynn and Mike Minor, debut at #43 and #49 respectively.
We welcome your input and commentsand as always, we thank you for your support.
Lance Lynn had some ups and downs before he became a Texas Ranger, going to an All-Star Game in St. Louis, to missing the entire 2016 season due to Tommy John surgery. After an unremarkable season split between the Minnesota Twins and New York Yankees, Lynn signed with the Texas Rangers in the 2019 season, and he was prepped for a comeback.
