He’s got 3 of the 4 rangers hits through six in a scoreless game with the Dodgers. Been hot all April to the point he’s played 1B, 3B, and DH in an effort to keep him in the lineup while getting others some time in the field. He’s turned into quite the run threat too. Great to see!

His back injury hampered his time at LSU. People forget he was a very high rated recruit and we were lucky to get him to campus.

On his weekly radio show here in DFW Bochy says all the time that he knows he needs to give Josh a day off but can’t afford to keep him out of the lineup.

He had a back injury at LSU that I wasn’t sure he would be able to bounce back from.

You probably forgot he was a highly rated recruit out of HS and we were very fortunate to get him to campus

He will have a nice career due to his versatility
Best thing to happen was Yankees trading him, it got him to majors quicker
His wife is pregnant and they are expecting a girl later this year

He should take over for Semien, he's been really bad this year.

He’s played 1B, 2B, 3B, SS, LF and DH. Josh is a beast.

We lost this game on a questionable out call at second where the runner left the bag briefly.

I’m still pissed the Yankees traded him for that bum Joey Gallo.

Should've been an all star last year. Had a rough back half but was killing the baseball before the break.

I did and said so when he left BR.
Talent was obvious.
