González avoided such temptations growing up. His father, a math teacher, and mother, a housewife, made sure González and his two sisters behaved properly and stayed away from negative influences. González moved his family out of the barrio early in his MLB career. He paid utility bills for down-on-their-luck friends and plans on working to construct recreation facilities and a baseball diamond in his home town. One of Juan's managers, <a href="/wiki/Johnny_Oates" title="Johnny Oates">Johnny Oates</a>, believed that until you've walked where Juan González has walked, you just won't understand. Speaking from experience, as Oates has walked the streets of Vega Baja, Puerto Rico, during visits multiple times, he had this to say: "I don't think you can appreciate how far he's come until you've been there", Oates said. "We might be making choices between going to the movies or going to the skating rink. But look at the choices the kids there were faced with growing up – do you want to do drugs or get beaten up? I think it says so much about him that he was able to rise above the peer pressure in Vega Baja.

During his time with the Rangers that year, González only hit one home run. He became the youngest player in Rangers history (19 yrs old) to hit a home run. </p><p>In 1990, González – playing with the <a href="/wiki/Oklahoma_City_89ers" class="mw-redirect" title="Oklahoma City 89ers">Oklahoma City 89ers</a> – led the American Association in home runs (29), RBI (101) and total bases (252). He made the AAA All-Star outfield alongside Lankford and <a href="/wiki/Bernard_Gilkey" title="Bernard Gilkey">Bernard Gilkey</a> and was named the league <a href="/wiki/Most_valuable_player" title="Most valuable player">MVP</a>. Baseball America named him the top prospect in the league in a poll of managers. He finished with .258/~.343/.508 for the 89ers. In the AAA All-Star Game, González hit 4th for the AL prospects and played as a <a href="/wiki/Designated_hitter" title="Designated hitter">designated hitter</a>. He went 2 for 5 with a double, one of the game's two homers, two runs and two RBI in the AL's 8–5 loss. González was again called up by the Rangers and did far better this time, batting .289/.316/.522. </p><p>In 1991, Texas gave González a chance to be an everyday player. He batted .264 while hitting 27 <a href="/wiki/Home_run" title="Home run">home runs</a> and recording 102 <a href="/wiki/Runs_batted_in" class="mw-redirect" title="Runs batted in">runs batted in</a> (RBIs). González came up as a center fielder, as did teammate Sammy Sosa; but the Rangers opted to keep González and trade Sosa. González split his time in the OF between CF (93 games) and LF (92 games). González thrilled the club in his first full season at the young age of 21, as his 27 home runs led the Rangers. His 102 RBI was good enough for 2nd on the club, and 7th in the AL. </p><p>In 1992, González finished with a .260 <a href="/wiki/Batting_average_(baseball)" title="Batting average (baseball)">batting average</a>, 43 home runs, and 109 RBIs. He spent most of his time in CF in '92, playing 123 games there, 31 in LF and making just one appearance in RF, while DH-ing 4 games. He was the American League home run champion (one more than <a href="/wiki/Mark_McGwire" title="Mark McGwire">Mark McGwire</a>) while also ranking 3rd in TB (309), 4th in extra-base hits (69), 5th in slugging percentage (.529), 7th in RBIs (109) while winning his first <a href="/wiki/Silver_Slugger_Award" title="Silver Slugger Award">Silver Slugger Award</a>.

He led the AL for the second consecutive year with 46 bombs, while raising his batting average an impressive 50 points to .310, all this to go along with a league-leading slugging percentage of .632. That production garnered González an invite to his first <a href="/wiki/Major_League_Baseball_All-Star_Game" title="Major League Baseball All-Star Game">All-Star</a> team. During the 1993 All-Star Weekend, he participated in the only <a href="/wiki/Home_Run_Derby" title="Home Run Derby">Home Run Derby</a> of his career. González and <a href="/wiki/Ken_Griffey_Jr." title="Ken Griffey Jr.">Ken Griffey Jr.</a> put on an amazing display of raw-power, as they each golfed 7 homers a piece.

He was selected to the Associated Press Major League All-Star Team and The Sporting News AL All-Star squad at season's end. González was also named the Puerto Rico Pro Athlete of the Year by Associated Press and the DFW Metroplex Pro Athlete of the Year by the Dallas All Sports Association. He received the honorable selection of American League Player of the Month in July, leading the majors in batting (.407), homers (15), RBI (38), slugging (.917) and total bases (99). González was also the AL Player of the Week for July 29 – August 4. González had a pair of 21-game hitting streaks, June 25 – July 19 and August 8–31, matching the 3rd longest hitting streaks in team history with Mickey Rivers (1980) being the only other Ranger with 2 20-game hitting streaks in the same season. On July 30, González went 5–5 vs. New York, a career best and tied the club record for hits in a game. González was also chosen as a member of the Major League Baseball All-Star Team that traveled to Japan for an eight game exhibition series in November, batting .500 (10–20) with one homer and 3 RBI in 7 games.<sup id="cite_ref-8" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-8"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>8<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> That year, the Texas Rangers made the playoffs, and in the <a href="/wiki/1996_American_League_Division_Series" title="1996 American League Division Series">1996 American League Division Series</a>, González homered five times in four games and batted .438/.526/1.375 with 9 RBI.

In 133 games he was 4th in slugging, 6th in total bases (314), third in homers (42) and RBI (131), 10th in extra-base hits (69) and tied for 6th with 10 sacrifice flies. González missed the first month of the season and was not activated from the DL until May 2 due to a torn ligament in his left thumb. Despite the injury he still managed to earn American League Player of the Month honors in September (.337, 10 home runs, 26 RBI) and was the Rangers Player of the Month in both August and September. González was selected to Baseball America's American League All-Star Team. </p><p>In 1998, he reached the 100 RBI mark before the All-Star break (101), being the first player (and still most recent) to do so since <a href="/wiki/Hank_Greenberg" title="Hank Greenberg">Hank Greenberg</a> 63 years earlier.<sup id="cite_ref-library_3-2" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-library-3"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>3<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> He hit cleanup for the AL in the <a href="/wiki/1998_Major_League_Baseball_All-Star_Game" title="1998 Major League Baseball All-Star Game">1998 All-Star Game</a> and decisively won the AL <a href="/wiki/Most_valuable_player" title="Most valuable player">MVP</a> award.

González was selected to major league all-star teams selected by the Associated Press (OF) and <i>Baseball America</i> (DH) and to the <i>Sporting News</i> AL all-star squad (OF). He was named as an outfielder on the AL Silver Slugger Award team for the 5th time in his career, his 3rd consecutive year. González shared Rangers Player of the Month honors with Iván Rodríguez in April and won the award outright in May. González also received the American League Player of the Week, for August 31 – September 6. He received 21 of 28 1st place mvp votes and 7 2nd place votes for 357 total points to defeat Boston's Nomar Garciaparra, who had 5 1st place votes and 232 points. González also became the 1st native of Latin America to ever win multiple MVP's since the award was instituted in 1931. This award also made him the 16th player to capture 2 MVP's in a 3-year span. The Rangers reached the playoffs, only to be swept by the Yankees. The Rangers offense was miserable in the <a href="/wiki/1998_American_League_Division_Series" title="1998 American League Division Series">Division Series</a>, scoring just one run on a Pudge Rodriguez single after doubling to lead off the inning. </p><p>In 1999, González was 9th in the AL in average, 4th in slugging, 6th in OPS, 10th in runs (114), 6th in total bases (338), 6th in home runs (39), 5th in RBI (128), 7th in extra-base hits (76) and 2nd in sacrifice flies (12). However, he and the Rangers wound up being swept for the second consecutive year by the Yankees in the <a href="/wiki/1999_American_League_Division_Series" title="1999 American League Division Series">Division Series</a>. González wasn't able to do much in the 3-game series, hitting .182/.250/.455 with one home run, but his solo bomb was the only run the Rangers scored in the series. </p><p>González announced just before the 1999 All-Star Game that if the fans did not elect him to the starting lineup, he would refuse an invitation to be added to the roster (as a result he was not invited). González believed that the system was flawed; he thought the managers and players should vote for the starters. A few weeks later González didn't dress for the Hall of Fame exhibition game because (according to the media) the uniform pants the Rangers brought for him were too large. González later had this to say about the incident "I couldn't play because my right wrist was sore. The pants they gave me were size 40. I wear 34.

González also had a 4 hit game April 11 at the Chicago White Sox. González batted .368 (43–117) vs. left-handers, 3rd best in the AL and had a .335 (53–158) mark with runners in scoring position, the 8th highest. As the DH, he hit .392 (31–79), this was the highest average in AL among players with 35 or more DH at bats, with 8 homers and 33 RBI in 21 games. </p><p>Through 11 full major league seasons (1991-2001), González had 392 homers and 1,263 RBI, an average of 36 homers and 115 RBI per year.

He quickly picked it up though and went on a .349 (29–83) tear with 9 homers and 24 RBI in his next 21 games, improving to .293 by May 5.

At the time, González was hitting .294 and ranked 3rd in home runs (24) 4th in slugging percentage (.572) and 7th in RBI (70) in the AL.

His 47 career multi-homer games are 12th most all-time. He also hammered 5 homers in 3 games, April 29 – May 1 at Toronto, the 4th time in Rangers history that feat had been accomplished. He had a season best 5 RBI on April 29 at Toronto and drove in 4 runs in a game on 3 occasions. González had 18 RBI in a 9-game span, April 22 – May 1, including 10 in 3-game series at Toronto, April 29 – May 1. He was selected as AL co-player of the week for April 28 – May 4. He also had a season high 9-game hitting streak, June 3–17. </p><p>He started 57 games in right field and 24 games as the designated hitter. He did not make an error in 108 total chances in the outfield and was tied for 6th in the league in outfield assists (10), despite his short season. He ranked 5th on the club in home runs (24), and completed his 11th season with 20 or more home runs.
