Rangers' Jurickson Profar: Coming off impressive WBC performance
Profar hit .464 (13-for-28) with five doubles, one home run and four RBI for Team Netherlands during the World Baseball Classic.
Analysis:
Once considered the top prospect in all of baseball, Profar has since seen his hype subside quite a bit. Despite that fact, the 24-year-old appears poised to be a key contributor for the Rangers in 2017. Due to his impressive positional versatility, he'll be relied upon as the team's main utility player and could end up seeing regular time in the outfield.
