Mar 15, 2021 When spring training began, projecting the Texas Rangers' Opening Day roster seemed like an impossible endeavor. There were a few locks, but the rest of it was some of my best educated guesses with a few blind tosses at a dartboard — I was just hoping to hit something. I'm happy to report that Projection 1.0 was not a cataclysmic failure. All 26 players from my first projection are still on the active roster, meaning they are still in the hunt for an Opening Day roster spot. Obviously, quite a bit has happened in the past couple of weeks, so there are a few changes this time around. Three injuries have made things a little easier to predict, but there are a couple players who have really made some noise in camp.
