When it comes to sports apparel, it can be tough to predict what’s really going to be popular, just like anything else. And we got a great example of that on Wednesday, after the Texas Rangers were trying to sell ‘Overlap’ edition hats. The Rangers hat was pulled from the MLB store on Monday, because in Spanish, it’s a vulgar term for a female’s breasts. It turns out, the hats are quite popular and are selling for as much as $1,000, according to a report from Front Office Sports.

Here’s a good picture of the Rangers hat.

It’s certainly interesting to see an MLB hat selling for $1,000. But different things like that can catch on from time to time.

The Rangers are lucky enough to have one of the most gifted and exciting prospects in all of baseball in Wyatt Langford.

Wyatt Langford has a bright future with the Texas Rangers

He enters his second season with the Texas Rangers with a ton of expectations. After spending his entire rookie campaign with the big-league club, Langford is in position to truly break out in 2025. And while it’s just spring training, the home run account was opened on Tuesday.

The Rangers were hosting a division rival, the Los Angeles Angels, for an afternoon bout. Langford already had a hit to his name but got a 1-0 slider on the inside portion of the plate. He got all of the ball, and the only question was whether it would land fair or foul.

Langford was shut down for around a week in late February due to a “mild oblique injury.” From the start, the Rangers were not concerned about Opening Day and the initial diagnosis has turned out to be true. Recovery appears to be complete as Langford clearly is showing signs of the power he possesses.

“I felt great, baseball-wise, but mostly physically,” Langford said Sunday. “I felt really good. It’s good to get out there and get my feet underneath me. It’s hard to say how long it’ll take to get my timing. Obviously, I felt pretty good out there today, but then tomorrow, you could feel like crap. That’s just baseball. But right now, I feel pretty good. I’m pretty excited.”

Texas has gotten immediate returns from the fourth overall pick of the 2023 MLB Draft. Langford broke last year’s spring training with the team and never got sent down to the minors. A slow start on the year was quickly forgotten in September as Langford looked like one of the best young players in baseball.

Langford wound up hitting .253 in 499 at-bats with 16 home runs and 74 RBIs. His slugging percentage of .740 was seventh among rookies who played at least 100 games. But as mentioned, September is when things really came together as Langford slashed .300/.386/.610. Half of his home runs and 20 RBIs were produced during baseball’s final month.

The Rangers are expected to have Langford be the everyday left fielder and slot into the lineup quite high throughout the 2025 season. Hopefully, the home runs follow him from Surprise, AZ, to Arlington.
