josh, keep living the dream. my dream was shattered my freshman year in high school when i caught a bat handle in the left eye (thank god i was wearing glasses at the time otherwise i would have lost my eye) those backstops are there for a reason! it was just my luck to have stepped around at just the wrong time. growing up all i ever wanted was to play baseball....im in my 60s now and i still wished i could play. take care of your knees and your shoulders n i pray to see you on the field playing for the rangers soon!
Welcome to the Rangers family. I very much look forward to following your journey to the big leagues, Josh. I've been checking the Hickory box scores every day since the trade and y'all have an absolutely stacked lineup. I can't help but be excited about the future of the Texas Rangers with the talent that has been showing out on the farm this year. Here's hoping that you get promoted to Frisco before the season's over so I can come out and watch you play in person. Good luck!
CONGRATULATIONS! This is Aug 11 and I just found out Josh has been promoted to AA Frisco. I live in the Metroplex and will be following his progress and your adventures. Will be excited to see your video about the promotion and move to Texas. Pray you all stay safe and Josh has a great season. Good luck.
CONGRATS again for your first hit and RBI in Frisco's 3-2 win at NW Arkansas last night. After this road series, you have four road (one week long) series and only two home series remaining in the regular season. Then, on to the playoffs. Good luck and God bless.
I don't like these two kids!! First...dude played at LSU and I am a Kentucky Wildcat fan. Second....they are both good looking, talented, bright, and funny! Third....I just discovered them yesterday. Watched like 5 videos, and already cried like three times...and I'm a big tough 56 year old DUDE! Seriously...love you guys!!! You seem like really nice people. I am excited to watch your life journey...your baseball journey....and I want to be your free driver the first time you are in Cincinnati playing against the Reds. I'll bring ya around to the sites, and show you the town, drive ya to dinner. I watched some of your baseball highlight clips, and I am sure that is going to happen very soon!! But, I think the best "catch" you ever made was Claire. (Josh...that Claire is a doll. Good work brother! I don't think she can see this comment if I put it in parentheses...lol). Now back to the show....I'm only to the wedding band surprise video so far!! These kids are gonna take up my entire Sunday....told you I didn't like them!! :-)
My wife and I are longtime Yankees fans who live in SE Indiana. We became aware of the two of you on the day after your departure from the Yankees organization. Which, TBH we are now very sad about. BUT, it has been a LOT of fun to watch your videos and see your experiences in the Minor League system. Thanks for sharing with us. It's always fun to see you two together.
Facial hair and hair standards are no big deal. The military has rules like that. Shaving daily is nothing. If that means a player gets to be a pro player at the highest level it's worth it.
My buddy is the roving hitting instructor for Texas. Cody Atkinson is his name. Another friend is a coach at Round Rock Kawika Emsley Pai. I coached with both of them at the college level
How does a professional baseball player get paid? I mean like taxes do they take it out where you live or in what cities you play in? You know like the right to work tax ? Yuck. Could you say Texas since they don't take out any state income tax? Or it matters where you play at?
I just started watching your channel and like the two of you.Goodluck with the Rangers I’m a Red Soxs fan but I will be rooting for you to make the Big Team.Hopefully we will see you in Boston as a Ranger or a Red Sox Goodluck.
@@BAKER22-l4u how is my comment upsetting to you? If they don’t want to make the video they don’t have to it’s their channel, even if they do make it you don’t have to watch it.
I'm a lifelong baseball fan (Milwaukee Brewers) and have always wondered about the journey to get to the bigs. Just found your channel today and really enjoy it. I hope you keep posting on a regular basis
Thanks for the new video. We are enjoying getting to know you guys. I hope you guys get to settle down in the DFW area and that Josh is a Ranger for his entire career.
Love your vlog. Life long Yankees fan, sorry you won't be in pinstripes. Missed you in Hickory, on your drive thru visit. Good luck with Rangers. I will be pulling for you, but not Texas.
As a baseball fan, you two are incredible for portraying minor league life. Looks like I'll have to root for a Ranger soon! Thanks for the experience you are bringing us along for!
I JUST found ya'll and I am LOVING it; I am so happy ya'll are TEXAS RANGERS!!! I will be a follower! I just saw where you were promoted to Frisco! I can not wait to watch you play live JOSH!! Claire, you are going to LOVE FRISCO and the mall near the ballpark AND HAPPY BIRTHDAY JOSH!!!
Josh how do you deal with high velo and what’s your hitting approach? It would be really good if you did a separate video on just hitting tips and advice since you are a pro player! Started watching today!
Just recently found your channel and the 2 of you make a great couple and it's interesting to watch your videos. Best wishes as you begin your new job with the Texas Rangers. Never realized that trades occur so quickly and it's interesting to see how it all works.
Started following you guys when he was on the Yankees was really mad when he was traded I wished we chose someone else was traded because you guys are really cool
Your channel is awesome. It’s so cool to see the inside look in the road to becoming a major league ball player. Can’t wait to see your journey and best of luck to the both of you guys.
Just started watching you guys and love the content. I live in Tampa and yes it can get crazy around here for sure. But gotta love the Tampa Bay Rays maybe one day you'll be on the rays. Keep up the crazy ass life style and I'm sure hopefully sooner then later you will be in the big leagues.
@@gettinsmithywithit134 Just realized that they changed AAA back to Round Rock last season they were in Nashville welcome to the Texas Rangers we need all the help we can get
can’t wait for you to move up in the system and get to texas. your going to love it here!! good luck on your journey! i’ll for sure be there when u make your debut.
If I was this poor guy... "Babe I get to grow a beard now. " Chick: "Yayyyyyy" Josh: "But they don't let WAGs come the road trip. I knowwwww, I'm so sad to. Anyway, see ya in a month. Love yaaaaaaaaa."
Saw a tiktok from Claire.... ended up here.... loved the vlogs.... as a lifelong rangers fan I can’t wait to see you play. Live near OKC and used to have the AAA affiliate of the rangers. Now I have to hope when you get promoted to round rock I can catch a game!
Your last video got me so excited to have you join the Rangers- y'all are so positive and excited, it's going to be great watching your road to the show! I can't wait to see Josh playing in Arlington in a couple years and Claire showing us what life is like along the way!
It’s been a long time since I’ve been to a rangers game but I’m going on the 28th to globe life to watch the rangers play the astros! I’m hyped I’m a big rangers fan! Glad your joining Texas!
Josh...how's your Spanish? Baseball is very Latin America. I know each team has at least one bi-lingual coach. Is it an issue understanding your teammates? How did you invest your signing bonus?
We had the opportunity to see Hudson Valley play the Iron Birds in Aberdeen. The players were all extremely nice to my kids. Unfortunately I did not see your blog before we went. It was only about a week before the trade. Anthony Volpe seemed very down to earth as well and we met a bunch of his family there. Good luck with the Rangers and it will be great to see and follow your progression.
@@gettinsmithywithit134 I'd be more worried being 24 in A ball. Seeing that you are old AF, instead of worrying about UA-cam. Free advice... make that double A before you're 25...
I have mixed reactions about your posts. You talk as though you were officially a Yankee at any point or you are now officially a Ranger. You were in their organization but you were never on the MLB team. I wish you the best and enjoy watching the life of a minor leaguer. I do feel like you have copied Hunter and Lexie Pence. With that said, keep producing content and give us the inside life. The biggest thing is, you are acting like celebs off of Josh's low (while impressive) minor league career. I will respect you much more if you do this channel when he hits the bigs and give us the same type of content. I hope he does. Right now, you are not the stars you think you are. Don't be so full of yourselves.
If you don’t like what we post, don’t watch it. We haven’t copied anyone, we are living our lives having fun while you live yours, which seems to be a very unimpressive life. Josh Smith
It’s really interesting to see how it all works and what you have to do to go big!!
josh, keep living the dream. my dream was shattered my freshman year in high school when i caught a bat handle in the left eye (thank god i was wearing glasses at the time otherwise i would have lost my eye) those backstops are there for a reason! it was just my luck to have stepped around at just the wrong time. growing up all i ever wanted was to play baseball....im in my 60s now and i still wished i could play. take care of your knees and your shoulders n i pray to see you on the field playing for the rangers soon!
Welcome to Texas it’s great
Very unique video!
I like that!
Josh, don’t bite on the crap from haters. Work hard and good luck
This was my favorite! Loved the honesty❤️ your bond is so pure 💛
Just found this channel ......Awesome!
Congratulation guys
Thank you!
What is the team name
Congrats on your promotion Josh.
Thank you!
Just found your channel and binged watched all the videos.
Love to hear it! Thank you
Claire STOP saying things like "We got traded".. Josh got traded, NOT you!! Josh is on the team NOT you!!
Where is the double a promotion vlog?
Coming soon!
Josh and Justin Foscue just got promoted to Frisco!!!! Way to go Josh! See you in Arlington before too long!
Moving on up!!! Welcome to Texas!! Congrats on the promotion!!!
If you live in Houston Tx will you go down to Galveston TX and go to the beach or take a cruise
Just found this channel. As a former college baseball player I’ll just live thru Josh now 🤣
Why? Get your OWN LIFE and make your OWN vlogs
@@BAKER22-l4u lmao meant for the baseball part my dude. I'm retired.
Gratz on call up to Frisco!!
Claire's crew neck was the MVP of this episode
Very intriguing!! You guys are awesome!! As a Ranger fan wish you the best keep RAKINNNNN!
I'm a die hard Yankee fan, and hate hate hate the facial hair rule they have. They should allow the players to grow their facial hair
We want Gallo back

They’re mood swing gummies!
What are they called? Or can you send a link? Please
Congratulations on the promotion to Frisco!!!
Nice first Frisco hit/rbi... stoked to come see ya this weekend against Arkansas. Question: Louisiana Cajun cooking better than Texas BBQ or Tex Mex?
Absolutely!
@@gettinsmithywithit134 idk... yall may have to prove it..lol
Linus with your blanket. :-) Good luck to y'all!!
You guys will love the Phoenix area when you are there for spring training. Scottsdale for sure!

Go to some games and shoot a little bit of footage Claire , that would be cool. Maybe rent out the lazy river and watch the game from there.
When is the next video. Waiting 😂
I live like 30 min from frisco hopefully to see you on the rough riders soon!
Congrats on the call up! Get up the good work!
Thank you!
Love listening to y'all......Claire is so.....cute!

Josh left his car in Tampa?! 😂 Love your videos guys! 🙌
Thank you for the wonderful video. We all dream of playing in the majors. Unfortunately we all hit that day we realize we can't hit that fastball.
I just started watching your channel and like the two of you.Goodluck with the Rangers I’m a Red Soxs fan but I will be rooting for you to make the Big Team.Hopefully we will see you in Boston as a Ranger or a Red Sox Goodluck.
im going to give you a tip, Hunter Pence trains with a guy named John Fish in Houston....look him up...great strength trainer
Such a unique journey that the two of you are on!! So happy for y’all, hope y’all enjoy every second of it 💖
Unique? LMAO.. Thier experience is NORMAL for a minor league baseball player.
Does the team pay for your hotel or do you guys have to? Also why not rent an apartment or house
Can we get a what’s in my baseball bag and bat bag video? (All the gear used in games and practices)
Get a LIFE

I second this, the inside look is actually very appealing! Hope this trend continues and we see him transition to the bigs one day!
That’s exactly what we’re trying to do!! Show the real world of this lifestyle

When do you go to dental School Claire?
We live in the Humble/Kingwood area and LOVE IT! So many young families and great community.
Josh and Claire, congratulations on your trade. Danville is following you and our other guys. Keep working hard. See you in the bigs soon.
Is Claire still going to dental school in Bradenton? If so, how is that going to work with spring training in Arizona? Good luck.
Who cares? Get your OWN LIFE
Happy Birthday Josh! Also so happy for y’all, hope you get to stay in TX. You should get Josh to sing us one day 🤣
Miss y’all so much!!! Texas better take good care of yall🤍🤍🤍🤍🤍🤍

Ready for you guys to move up to double A to get there with Huff, Jung and the crew!

Oh Claire your so loud.
You each get your own hotel room on away games?
