IMO, Brandon Boggs was the best defensive outfielder on the Rangers last year. Boggs was rated as the 7th best left fielder in baseball last year by the fielding bible.

It's a fun arugment to make though. Hamilton is the only Ranger outfielder that isn't above average defensively (and I still think Hamilton will get better as he gets more experience). If Borbon fulfills his promise and takes over center, Hamilton in right and Cruz in left with Murphy or Boggs as the fourth outfielder will be absolutely ridiculous defensively.

I am so, so freaking excited about the next five+ years for the Rangers.
