Think that the rangers should trade everyone they have for people with high obp and no power. Think that someone with a 300 avg and a 350 obp isnt as good as a guy with a 250 avg and a 360 obp assuming everything else is equal. OBP is very important dont get me wrong but its not the end all be all that it was made out to be. Slugging percentage has a higher connection to runs but in this particular case I like it because I think that a lineup needs to be balanced and the rangers still have a wealth of power. Plus I think wilkerson will match soris power numbers here.
