The Texas Rangers need pitching, and a few promising free agent options include players that used to pitch for them. Will they pursue?
With 2019 expected to be a stepping stone season, the Texas Rangers will look for a few bargains this offseason to fill out their roster. Rather than bargaining on washed up players like they did last offseason, they may look to bring back a few familiar faces in which they’ll have a good idea of what to expect.
One is a power left-hander out of the bullpen, one a forgotten right-hander out of the pen, and one a long time Rangers’ fan favorite. While their best days may be in the rear view mirror, all three have plenty left in the tank to make an impact on a rebuilding Texas squad.
Enough beating around the bush. Let’s identify these three players and explain why the Rangers should show them interest in the free agent market.
