There are a whole lot of variables in the "best possible team for the Rangers".
If they had to field the current team for an entire season right now, then maybe the right move is to put Salty at 1B. But unless Laird shows signs of improving offensively some time soon, you could find any number of players to play first base and create a better offensive combination with Salty at catcher than a Salty/Laird combination would be.
