Currently, the Cincinnati Reds are in the Dallas Metroplex gearing up for a weekend series against the reigning World Series champions, the Texas Rangers. Despite a somewhat shaky start to the 2024 season with a 13-13 record, the Rangers have been grappling with early-season injuries.
However, my focus today isn’t solely on baseball. It’s more about conjuring up images of Texas flair: the iconic ten-gallon hats, bold chest hair peeking out from shirts, perhaps even some ninja-like moves and battling villains in true Texas Ranger style.
On Fridays, we like to indulge in a bit of fun, so here’s a rundown (albeit incomplete) of current and former Cincinnati Reds players who could easily fit the bill as Texas Rangers:
- Glenn Braggs
- Adam Dunn
- Sam LeCure
- Jonny Gomes
- Eric Davis
- Randy Myers
- Reggie Sanders
- Benito Santiago
- Rick Wrona
- Scott Scudder
- Homer Bailey
- Billy Hamilton
- Travis Wood
- Trevor Hoffman
- Curt Walker
- Duane Walker
- Gee Walker
- Harry Walker
- Hub Walker
- Mysterious Walker
- Tom Walker
- Todd Walker
- Tyler Mahle
- Elly De La Cruz
These players bring a certain ruggedness and charisma that would undoubtedly suit the Texas Ranger persona.
