It’s not much, but then again, there’s not much to talk about in spring training. It’s always the same thing. Guys come into camp in the best shape of their lives. Guys come into camp looking to have the best seasons of their careers. The team looks strong. The energy […]
Looking for help at first base, the Rangers have signed veteran Mark Canha on a minor league deal. It’s a good deal for both. The Rangers get veteran leadership and depth at first, a position they were razor thin last year once Jake Burger went down. Canha gets a chance […]
Baseball Prospectus’s 2026 PECOTA predictions are in, and they have the Rangers winning two more games than they did last year. But still finishing third in the division. PECOTA stands for too many random words to care about, but it’s a sabermetric system of evaluating player performance, running it through […]
Bad luck strikes the Rangers even before the first full-squad workout. Highly regarded prospect Sabastian Walcott will miss significant time in 2026 due to elbow surgery. He might even miss the entire season. If so, that will be a huge blow to his development, considering the almost certain loss of […]
Jordan Montgomery is coming back to the Rangers. In the words of the Grateful Dead, what a long, strange trip it’s been. The thirty-three-year-old right-handed pitcher spent six solid seasons with the Yankees, was traded to the Cardinals at the deadline of 2022, pitched well for Saint Louis, then traded […]

The Collective Bargaining Agreement between players and owners expires at the end of the 2026 season. Enjoy this season. It will be the last one for a while. Any hope of avoiding a work stoppage went out the window yesterday when The New York Times reported owners will push for a salary […]
The Rangers have been busy at the Dollar Store. Almost the same time the Rangers signed catcher Danny Jansen, they signed a former closer in Alexis Diaz and another bullpen arm in Tyler Alexander. Alexis Diaz. Diaz is a twenty-nine-year-old former reliable closer for the Reds. The key word here […]
The Rangers offense got a little better with the announcement that they have signed catcher Danny Jansen to a two-year, 14.5-million-dollar deal. The thirty-year-old right-hand batting catcher has had a couple down seasons at the plate after seven really strong years in Toronto. In fact, 2022 was his best year, […]
The Winter Meetings start Monday, and it’s anyone’s guess what the Rangers will do. They have so many holes to fill, and only a tiny spoon with which to dig. In swapping out Marcus Semien for Brandon Nimmo, the Rangers offense has invproved a bit. But it had more than […]
