The Rangers are in the market for a utility player, suggesting that 20-year-old Jurickson Profar will begin the season in the minor leagues, tweets Jon Heyman of CBS Sports.
That Profar, the No. 1 prospect in the game according to Baseball America and MLB.com, won't make the roster doesn't come as a shock. He's yet to play at Triple-A and is blocked by Elvis Andrus and Ian Kinsler at the middle infield positions.
Earlier this morning it was reported that the Astros are looking to trade Tyler Greene, who has been told that he won't make the big league roster out of Spring Training. General manager Jon Daniels should have no shortage of options given the number of players who will find themselves in similar situations to Greene in the coming days.
