For a team like the Rangers who are in the rebuilding (rebuilding from being bad I guess?) phase having guys like Cat, Wilk, and Sosa make zero sense. None of the three can play solid D and all are streak hitters. These really aren't the kind of guys that can help a young team or even a solid team. Just my 2 cents.
Wilkerson is an above average defensive left fielder, and has an adequate arm to play right field.

Cat is a below average defender in left, but he's not going to kill you. And Cat can most certainly contribute to a more than solid team.
