The Texas Rangers are heading into a major rebuild. Pitching coach Mike Maddux, who helped guide Texas to three World Series appearances and their first championship in 2023, is leaving to join the division-rival Los Angeles Angels under new manager Kurt Suzuki.
Maddux’s departure leaves a massive hole in a staff that led MLB with a 3.47 ERA in 2025. With 12 free agents, bullpen uncertainty, and roster decisions looming, the Rangers’ offseason just got a lot tougher.
We break down what Maddux’s exit means for Texas’ pitching staff, who could replace him, and how the team plans to rebuild around deGrom, Eovaldi, Mahle, and Leiter heading into 2026.

The Texas Rangers have officially been eliminated from playoff contention after a 4-1 loss to the Minnesota Twins. It marks their eighth straight defeat and ends a season full of frustration, inconsistency, and offensive struggles.
From a team batting average of just .235 to ranking among the worst in run production, the Rangers never found their rhythm. With only five games left, the focus now shifts to finishing with a winning record, evaluating young talent, and facing big offseason decisions—most notably the future of manager Bruce Bochy.

The Texas Rangers may have dropped another series to the Houston Astros, but their playoff hopes are still alive. 🚨
After a heartbreaking 6–5 loss and three straight defeats, the AL West is officially out of reach. But the Rangers’ path to October baseball now runs through the Wild Card race—where they’ll need to outlast the Cleveland Guardians and Boston Red Sox.
✅ Cleveland is red hot, winning 10 of their last 11.
✅ Boston is stumbling, dropping four of their last five.
✅ Texas has a favorable schedule ahead with the Marlins and Twins before a crucial season-ending series against Cleveland.
If Jacob deGrom and the Rangers’ rotation can stabilize, Texas still has a realistic shot at sneaking into that final Wild Card spot. The question is—will the Guardians cool off and will Boston keep slipping?

The Texas Rangers may not be perfect right now, but they’ve stormed back into the playoff picture—and even the AL West race—just as the Houston Astros and Seattle Mariners start to stumble. Tuesday night highlighted the cracks in Houston’s armor when Framber Valdez clashed with his own catcher, Cesar Salazar, after serving up a grand slam to the Yankees.
Meanwhile, Bruce Bochy’s Rangers have quietly won 8 of their last 11 games despite missing several stars. With Houston’s lead shrinking and Seattle feeling the pressure, Texas has a golden opportunity to keep climbing.
In this episode, we break down:
⚾ How Houston’s meltdown could open the door for Texas
⚾ Why Valdez’s frustration shows deeper problems for the Astros
⚾ How the Rangers’ resilience is fueling their late-season surge
Can the Rangers complete the comeback and steal the division? Let’s talk about it.

The Texas Rangers’ playoff hopes take another crushing blow as new closer Phil Maton coughs up a must-win game, the bullpen battles injuries, and the offense still can’t find consistency. With a brutal schedule ahead and postseason odds sinking fast, we break down whether this is the beginning of the end—or if there’s still a miracle run left in Texas.

The Texas Rangers miss a golden opportunity to sweep the New York Yankees and lose the season series in frustrating fashion. We break down Jack Leiter’s second straight rough outing, how costly walks and command issues derailed his start, and why the bullpen — particularly Robert Garcia — couldn’t hold the line.
Plus, we highlight bright spots from Zeke Duran’s best game of the year, strong relief work from Hoby Milner and Cole Winn, and how the Rangers’ defensive versatility continues to be a strength. He also looks ahead to tough upcoming matchups, roster decisions looming with Jake Burger’s return, and what Texas must do to stay alive in the playoff race.

The second half of the season hasn’t even started, and the Texas Rangers are already facing a major lineup headache. Jake Burger is back on the injured list after jamming his left quad just before the All-Star break, and the front office in Arlington seems uncertain about who will step up in his absence. With Burger sidelined until at least July 23, the real question isn't how much they'll miss his bat—he's been hitting just .228 with 11 home runs—but how they'll plug the hole at first base without breaking their defensive structure.
In this episode, we break down the Rangers’ limited internal options, including a potential Josh Smith/Ezekiel Duran platoon, plus the possibility of shuffling Josh Jung or calling up Blaine Crim. We also explore the wildcard: newly-signed Rowdy Tellez, who’s quietly waiting in the wings with a minor league deal. Who’s going to man first base, and what kind of ripple effect will it have across the infield?

In today’s episode, we’re diving into the buzz around Texas Rangers top prospect Sebastian Walcott. While fans and analysts still argue whether this current Rangers squad is built to contend, there's no debate about who their most exciting future piece is—and it's the 18-year-old phenom lighting up Double-A Frisco.
Walcott showed out in the MLB Pipeline Prospect Showcase, flashing both power and elite base-running instincts. A two-hit performance, three stolen bases, and the kind of spark you can’t teach—this is the kind of outing that reminds everyone why he’s the No. 9 prospect in all of baseball.
We break down Walcott’s development in his third professional season, why his slow start at Double-A shouldn’t be a concern, and what Tuesday’s standout performance could signal for his future.
If you're looking for the future of the Texas Rangers, look no further than Sebastian Walcott. But the real question is: How soon will he make his debut—and can he be the spark this team needs now?
Tune in as we explore the promise, the potential, and the pressure that comes with being baseball’s next big thing.

The Rangers may be 31–35, but there’s a silver lining: they’re 22–4 in games with four or more runs. How much of that is elite starting pitching from deGrom, Eovaldi, Leiter, Mahle and Corbin? What role has the bullpen played? And what if Texas hit just league-average offense (4.32 runs/game) instead of their current 3.35? We break down every angle—plus what Bruce Bochy, Bret Boone and Justin Viele are doing to turn this season around. Don’t miss our full analysis!

In this episode of Talkin’ Texas Rangers, we’re diving into the gritty, unpolished side of professional baseball—the in-between world of Triple-A purgatory. Inspired by the minor-league grind showcased in Bull Durham, we explore the fragile line between future star and forgotten name.
We shine a spotlight on three Texas Rangers prospects—Justin Foscue, Emiliano Teodo, and Winston Santos—who are dangerously close to being labeled busts. Each of these players has shown promise at various levels, but are now facing the make-or-break moment in their careers.
Is Foscue blocked by a crowded infield? Can Teodo overcome control issues and arm trouble? Will Santos ever conquer Double-A Frisco and take that next step?
Join us as we break down their current stats, discuss what’s holding them back, and ask the hard question—are they still part of the Rangers’ future plans, or is time running out?

The Texas Rangers looked like they were finally about to break out against the Yankees on Wednesday night—Jake Burger crushed two homers, Sam Haggerty added one of his own, and Jacob DeGrom was dealing. But it all fell apart late. The bullpen imploded, again. Luke Jackson surrendered a game-tying single to Aaron Judge, then a brutal walk-off homer to Jasson Dominguez. Just like that, a 3-1 lead turned into a 4-3 defeat.

In today’s episode of Talkin’ Texas Rangers, we’re diving into the offensive black hole that’s swallowing up the 2025 season. Despite a decent showing from stars like Corey Seager and Wyatt Langford, the bats just aren’t delivering when it counts — and the home run drought is officially alarming.
We break down the three players skating on thin ice: Adolis García, Kevin Pillar, and Jake Burger. Is the Rangers’ clutch king losing his edge? Is Pillar’s veteran presence no longer enough? And what’s the real story behind Burger’s demotion? Plus, we’ll talk about Evan Carter’s return and what that could mean for the lineup shakeup going forward.

Too soon to panic? The Texas Rangers hold the best record in the American League at 7-2, but some fans are already tearing the team apart online. In this video, we discuss why expectations need to be kept in check—especially for superstars like Corey Seager—as well as the knee-jerk reactions calling for dramatic roster changes. We’ll dive into why baseball is one of the hardest sports out there (failing 7 times out of 10 can still make you an all-time great!), and how focusing on the negative so early might do more harm than good. Join us as we encourage patience, optimism, and simply enjoying the game we love. Let’s breathe, Rangers fans—there’s a lot of season left!

we’re talking about Jacob deGrom’s masterful first start—five shutout innings, six strikeouts, and still not even his top gear! I’ll tell you why that performance was more impressive than the numbers alone. We’ll also get into Jack Leiter’s first MLB win and how his improved mental game really shone on the mound. Meanwhile, there’s some unfortunate injury news on Josh Jung, and the Rangers’ depth is being tested early.
Despite a few setbacks, the offense is rolling (hello, Adolis García’s scorching bat!) and the bullpen is settling in after some initial hiccups. So grab your Rangers cap, kick back, and get ready for an in-depth look at how the team is shaping up.

Join us as we explore the Texas Rangers’ quest to rebound from a disappointing 2024 campaign, despite winning it all in 2023. We’ll dive into why Jacob deGrom, fresh off Tommy John and armed with a massive contract, is their top X-factor in chasing another postseason berth. Hear how the team’s reliance on in-house pitching and a minimal offseason addition might affect their fortunes, and discover why a fully healthy deGrom could be the spark that reignites the Rangers’ championship hopes.

It’s official. The Rangers have their 2025 Opening Day starter in right-hander Nathan Eovaldi! In this episode, we break down why this decision felt locked in ever since manager Bruce Bochy hinted that Jacob deGrom would start from the back of the rotation. We’ll also dig into what this means for the franchise, as Eovaldi becomes the first Rangers pitcher in 15 years to start consecutive Opening Days—something last accomplished by Kevin Millwood back in 2009.
We’ll explore the revolving door of Opening Day arms Texas has seen since 2010—big names like Cole Hamels, Yu Darvish, and Mike Minor—and discuss Eovaldi’s track record (and spring training struggles) as he prepares for the March 27 opener at home in Arlington. Plus, we’ll touch on the injuries to Cody Bradford and Jon Gray that have impacted the rotation, and speculate on Boston’s likely starters, Walker Buehler or Garrett Crochet. Tune in for a deep dive into all things Rangers pitching!

In this episode, we explore the Texas Rangers’ urgent push to win—and how Jack Leiter’s progress might shape the team’s path forward. They’ve got aging stars like Corey Seager, Marcus Semien, Jacob deGrom, and Nathan Eovaldi who are looking to strike while the iron’s hot. Meanwhile, Leiter’s minor league track record is concerning, but he’s shown flashes of brilliance this spring with a 2.25 ERA and improved pitching repertoire.
We dig into why trading Leiter might be a bold yet necessary move. Could flipping him for a proven arm like Sandy Alcantara (fresh off Tommy John and already hitting 100 mph) elevate the Rangers into a legitimate championship threat? Or does sticking with Leiter for the long haul offer a better payoff?
Join us as we unpack the pros and cons of dealing away a former No. 2 overall pick alongside top prospects like Alejandro Osuna and Cameron Cauley—all in the name of securing a World Series–ready rotation. We’ll look at what this trade would mean for the team’s future, how it could reshape the roster, and why these pivotal decisions matter in a win-now environment. Tune in to find out if the Rangers should go all-in for Alcantara or stand by Jack Leiter to become the next cornerstone of their rotation.

Hot takes are flying as the 2025 MLB season approaches, and we’re diving into some of the boldest predictions for the Texas Rangers. Could this squad break the franchise’s single-season home run record? With a loaded lineup featuring Corey Seager, Adolis García, Josh Jung, and new additions like Joc Pederson and Jake Burger, the power potential is real. We also discuss Josh Smith’s versatility and whether he’ll play a jaw-dropping eight different positions this season.
Plus, could the Rangers bring home four Silver Slugger Awards? And what about manager Bruce Bochy—will this be his final season, or will he return in 2026? Tune in as we break it all down and give our take on what’s ahead for the reigning World Series champs!

With Opening Day just around the corner, the Texas Rangers’ rotation is mostly locked in—but there’s still some intrigue over the final spot! Could we see Tyler Mahle or Kumar Rocker step up? And what’s the deal with Jon Gray potentially moving to the bullpen?
In this episode, we take a deep dive into the projected starting five and what Rangers fans can expect heading into the 2025 season:
🔹 Jacob deGrom – Fully healthy after Tommy John surgery & ready to reclaim his ace status 🔥
🔹 Nathan Eovaldi – The most reliable & clutch arm in Texas’ rotation 💪
🔹 Cody Bradford – An emerging force who has the full trust of Bruce Bochy 👀
🔹 Jon Gray – Addressing those closer rumors & his value as a starter 🤔

The closer role is always a hot topic in Major League Baseball—especially for a Bruce Bochy-managed team. This season, the Rangers head into spring training with questions swirling around who will lock down the 9th inning. While some teams are opting for a committee approach, it remains to be seen if Bochy will change his philosophy.
In this episode, we break down the four in-house candidates fighting to become Texas’ next closer:
- Josh Sborz: Electric stuff and postseason experience, but ongoing health concerns could impact his availability.
- Jon Gray: Longtime starter with a fastball-slider combo perfect for high-leverage situations. Could a shift to the bullpen be in the cards?
- Chris Martin: Steady veteran presence and the most career saves among the group. His consistency might be exactly what the Rangers need.
- Marc Church: The intriguing young arm with huge strikeout potential, but command and a spot on the 26-man roster are lingering questions.
Join us as we discuss Bochy’s bullpen strategies, how these pitchers might fit, and whether the Rangers will shake up their approach. If you love talking baseball, pitching, and all things bullpen strategy, you won’t want to miss this. Subscribe to stay updated on all the latest Rangers news, and share your thoughts in the comments—who’s your pick for the next Rangers closer?

After nearly two years of uncertainty, the Texas Rangers have finally secured their own broadcasting solution—introducing the Rangers Sports Network!

Now, with deals in place—including a new streaming partnership with Victory+ and agreements with AT&T U-Verse, DirecTV, DirecTV Stream, and Spectrum—the Rangers control their own destiny in the broadcast world.

After a stunning World Series victory in 2023, the Texas Rangers faced a sobering reality in 2024, missing the postseason with just 78 wins. Now, the team is determined to return to contention, making bold offseason moves to reshape their roster.
In this episode, we break down the Rangers' key acquisitions, including power bats Joc Pederson and Jake Burger, the underrated addition of Kyle Higashioka, and the re-signing of Nathan Eovaldi to solidify their rotation. But the biggest splash? A complete bullpen makeover with additions like Chris Martin, Hoby Milner, and others.
However, the team still has one glaring hole: the closer’s role. With Kirby Yates and David Robertson still on the free-agent market, can the Rangers bring back one of their former stars or land another experienced option like Tanner Scott or Carlos Estevez? We discuss the importance of locking down this critical position and how it could make or break their chances in 2025.
💡 Join us as we analyze the moves, highlight remaining needs, and debate whether these changes are enough to crown Texas the team to beat in the AL West. Don’t miss this deep dive into the Rangers’ offseason strategy and their path to redemption!

The Texas Rangers entered this offseason facing a severe bullpen shortage after numerous relievers departed in free agency. While familiar names like José Leclerc, Kirby Yates, José Ureña, and David Robertson remain on the market, none have been seriously linked to a return to Arlington. But on Wednesday, FanSided’s Robert Murray reported that the Rangers took their first step in rebuilding the ‘pen by signing reliever Jacob Webb to a one-year deal.
In this video, we break down what Webb brings to the table. We’ll cover his recent performance with the Baltimore Orioles, where he consistently delivered better-than-league-average results. His pitching arsenal—featuring a four-seam fastball, sweeper, and changeup—kept hitters off balance, with some pitches limiting opponents to a batting average as low as .125.
This move is the latest in a flurry of transactions by the Rangers, who just added Nathan Eovaldi and pulled off a surprise trade for Jake Burger. Clearly, the organization isn’t satisfied with their 78-win 2024 season and is determined to improve. While the bullpen rebuild isn’t complete, adding Webb is an encouraging first step toward stabilizing a unit that ended last season near the bottom of the league in ERA. Stay tuned as we discuss what’s next for the Rangers and how they can continue to strengthen their bullpen heading into 2025.

In this episode, we dive into the Texas Rangers' preparations for the upcoming Winter Meetings, happening December 9-12, where free agency activity is expected to heat up. Speculation continues to swirl around big-name players like Juan Soto—will he return to the Yankees or head to the Red Sox?
Meanwhile, the Rangers have already made their first offseason splash by signing veteran catcher Kyle Higashioka to a two-year deal with a mutual option for a third year. We break down the signing, including Higashioka’s contract details, his performance stats, and how this move bolsters the catcher position alongside Jonah Heim. Plus, hear how former Rangers catcher Jose Trevino gave Higashioka a glowing recommendation for the organization.
What’s next for the Rangers? The closing pitcher position is the next major focus, and we explore the options General Manager Chris Young has to ensure the team remains postseason-ready for 2025.

In this episode, we dive deep into the Texas Rangers' postseason success and their persistent struggles in developing homegrown pitching talent. Since 2010, the Rangers have notched the fifth most postseason victories (33) and the sixth best playoff winning percentage (.559) in MLB. During this stretch, they've played in 59 playoff games, showcasing their dominance on the field. Yet, of these games, only eight have been started by pitchers they drafted, developed, and called up without ever touching another franchise.
But why is there still concern about their developmental struggles despite their success with veteran pitchers? We'll break down the importance of having young, controllable, and effective starting pitchers, drawing comparisons to the impacts of Paul Skenes in Pittsburgh and Clayton Kershaw in LA. Tune in as we analyze the Rangers' unique approach and the potential long-term implications for their pitching staff.

The Texas Rangers are having a rough season after their incredible World Series win last year. With a current record of 43-48, they're trailing by 5.5 games in the AL West and 7.0 in the Wild Card race. While there's still a glimmer of hope, it looks like the Rangers might shift their focus to 2025 and beyond.
Rumors are swirling about a potential fire sale at the trade deadline, with key players like Max Scherzer, David Robertson, Michael Lorenzen, and Andrew Heaney possibly on the trading block. These moves could reshape the team's future, with veterans like Nathan Eovaldi also potentially attracting interest.
Will the Rangers turn things around, or are we looking at a major re-tooling for the future? Dive into the latest updates and speculations in this episode.

In this episode, we dive deep into the Texas Rangers' recent ups and downs. After an exhilarating 11-2 victory over the Baltimore Orioles, the Rangers have snapped their six-game losing streak and gained some much-needed momentum. Despite this win, the defending champions find themselves eight games behind the Seattle Mariners for the top spot in the AL West and equally distanced from a Wild Card position.
We explore the trade rumors swirling around the team as the July deadline approaches. Will the Rangers be sellers, with key players like Andrew Heaney and Nathan Eovaldi potentially on the move? Eovaldi, in particular, has been a standout since signing a two-year deal after the 2022 season. With his consistent performance and playoff prowess, he could be a hot commodity if made available.
Join us as we discuss Eovaldi's future with the Rangers, including the possibility of an extension, and what it means for the team's plans moving forward. Could the Rangers be looking at another rebuild, or will they push through with their current roster in hopes of a late-season comeback?

In this episode, we examine the Texas Rangers' tumultuous 2024 season. After entering the weekend trailing the Seattle Mariners by 5.5 games, the Rangers left Seattle trailing by 8.5 games, maintaining their deficit in the division. This is a stark contrast to their high expectations following an incredible World Series championship run last year.
Currently sitting at 34-40 and out of a playoff spot, the Rangers are running out of time to turn things around. The upcoming trade deadline may offer some hope, but the core issues within the roster need immediate attention. We’ll delve into the key factors behind the Rangers' struggles:

In this episode, we break down the Texas Rangers' missed opportunity to close the gap in the AL West against the division-leading Seattle Mariners. Entering the weekend series, the Rangers were just a few games below .500 and had a real chance to make a statement. Instead, they were swept by the Mariners, extending Seattle's lead in the division to 9.0 games. To make matters worse, the Rangers followed this disappointing performance with a crushing 14-2 loss to the New York Mets on Monday night.
We discuss the implications of this series and what it means for the Rangers' playoff hopes. While it's true that baseball is a long season and anything can happen, the road ahead looks challenging with upcoming series against tough opponents like the Mets, Royals, Brewers, and Orioles. The Rangers' health issues and their poor start against Seattle this season compound the difficulty of their situation.
Tune in as we analyze what the Rangers need to do to turn things around and how the seven crucial games against the Mariners in September could determine their fate. Despite the current setbacks, we explore the glimmers of hope and potential strategies for the Rangers to get back in the race.

This week we dive deep into the struggles of Jack Leiter, the highly-touted pitching prospect for the Texas Rangers. After a disappointing home debut with a horrendous 16.39 ERA in just 9.1 innings, Leiter's future in the major leagues looks uncertain. Despite his dominance in the minors, Leiter has yet to replicate that success at the big league level. With the Rangers sending him back to the minors, fans are left wondering if he will ever fulfill his potential.
Join us as we compare Leiter's current trajectory with past Rangers' draft busts, such as Dillon Tate, Casey Kiker, and the infamous 2010 draft picks Jake Skole and Kellin Deglan. We also explore what could have been with potential All-Stars like Christian Yelich, Aaron Sanchez, and Nick Castellanos. Can Leiter turn things around and avoid joining this list of draft failures?

In this insightful episode, we delve into the Texas Rangers' offseason strategy amidst financial uncertainties. Fresh off their euphoric first World Series win, a significant achievement capping 52 years of effort, the Rangers are now facing a challenging offseason ahead of the 2024 season. The episode explores the Rangers' cautious approach in building their roster, contrasting it with the aggressive moves of teams like the New York Yankees and the Toronto Blue Jays.
We discuss the Rangers' sole major signing so far - reliever Kirby Yates for one year at $4.5 million - and their hesitancy to make further big moves. Ken Rosenthal's insights on the Athletic suggest the Rangers are considering two paths: possibly retaining Clayton Kershaw or exploring second-tier free-agent starters like Sean Manaea, Frankie Montas, or Michael Wacha. A key factor in their restrained approach is the looming "financial uncertainty," mainly due to the potential loss of the media rights deal with Bally Sports. This episode examines the implications of these financial challenges and how they're shaping the Rangers' strategy for constructing their 2024 roster

The news came out on Sunday morning just before the NFL games that Aaron Nola will be returning to Philadelphia for the long term. The 30-year-old right-hander agreed to seven-year contract worth $172 million. According to Jon Heyman of the New York Post, Nola met with other teams and turned down more money to stay in Philadelphia. He chose to stay with a team that was in the World Series in 2022 and a win away from making it back to the World Series in 2023.
This choice by Nola could lead to a certain free-agent left-hander also choosing to stay with the team that he finished the season with. Now that Texas has an idea of what Montgomery is worth on the free agent market would it be smart to bring him back for those years and at that cost?

In this episode, we take a deep dive into the exciting trade that just went down between my beloved Texas Rangers and the Kansas City Royals. The Rangers have acquired none other than Aroldis Chapman to bolster their bullpen as they gear up for a crucial four-game series against the Houston Astros. As a die-hard Rangers fan, this trade has huge implications for our AL West division hopes.
We'll break down the details of the trade, which saw the Rangers send left-handed pitcher Cole Ragans and minor league outfielder Roni Cabrera to the Royals in exchange for Chapman. It's a move that has caught the attention of fans and analysts alike, and we'll explore the reasons behind the Rangers' decision to make this trade.

In a surprising move, the Texas Rangers have announced that Will Smith will take over as their new closer, replacing Jose Leclerc, who has struggled to keep the role. The decision comes after Leclerc blew two consecutive save opportunities, leading to losses for the team.
Will Smith is a seasoned reliever with a track record of success in the major leagues. He has spent most of his career as a closer, and his experience in high-pressure situations makes him a natural fit for the role. Smith has a career ERA of 3.56 and has saved 95 games, including 37 saves in 2021 with the Atlanta Braves.

Jake Odorizzi was the first move the Texas Rangers made in the offseason to improve their pitching staff. He was traded for initially to join the starting rotation. As the offseason went on and the Rangers signed Jacob deGrom, Andrew Heaney, and Nathan Eovaldi he was moved into the swing role of long man/spot starter. Spring Training got started and he started feeling arm fatigue and was not able to ever take the mound in a spring training game. He was then moved from the bullpen to the 60-day IL to start the season. It was announced that he will remain on the IL for the remainder of the season. We talk this and more on the latest episode of The Talkin Texas Rangers podcast.

As the start of spring training draws near, the Texas Rangers are hoping that the 2023 season will be the season the team returns to the playoffs. Following a massive spending spree on pitching this offseason which included adding star Jacob DeGrom and Nathan Eovaldi, but failed to add another bat to the lineup. While they didn't add another bat through free agency, the return of a healthy Mitch Garver to this lineup is just as good as any other move the team could've made.

It won't be long before the Texas Rangers are packing up the equipment truck and driving out to Surprise. We've waited a long time for baseball to come back, and it seems like the start of a new season is getting closer every day. Expectations for the Rangers in 2023 will be higher than in seasons past with a fully revamped pitching staff, not to mention another year of Corey Seager and Marcus Semien and several highly-rated prospects knocking on the door. There's a lot to look forward to, and here are five things I'm excited to watch when players begin to report to Surprise.

In this episode of Talkin Texas Rangers, we'll be discussing the Texas Rangers and their 2022 season. As someone who watches a ton of Ranger games, I can tell you that 2022 was so much more enjoyable than the year before. 2021 was a display of bad baseball, especially the last few months of the season. It got hard to watch, even for the most loyal of fans.

It has been quite an offseason for the Texas Rangers. GM Chris Young (CY) and owner Ray Davis made it clear that they were going to enhance the rotation every chance they got, and they have not disappointed.
To go alongside Jon Gray, the Rangers have added Jake Odorizzi via a trade with the Atlanta Braves, resigned Martin Perez via the qualifying offer, and signed free agents Jacob deGrom and Andrew Heaney. This could set them up with a strong six-man rotation, something many teams have begun to transition to.

The amount of people I’ve heard that it’s not worth going to Texas Rangers games is staggering. I know it’s hard to sit through a two-and-a-half-hour baseball game only to see the Rangers lose. However, that could be changing quick this off-season with what Rangers GM Chris Young is about to do. With 2023 ahead of us, there are three reasons to join the Rangers bandwagon. We also talk the latest news and rumors surrounding the team.

There’s no doubt quality starting pitching was one of the Ranger’s biggest downfalls in 2022. The Texas Rangers ranked 22nd out of 30 MLB teams with a cumulative 4.22 ERA. Additionally, Texas’ pitching issued the 4th most walks across the league and placed 24th in WHIP with a 1.34.
The Rangers haven’t had a winning season since 2017 which has led to growing frustration from fans and ownership alike. This is a big reason why Texas Ranger’s owner Ray Davis has given GM Chris Young the green light to increase the payroll for 2023.
Texas only has $80 million guaranteed for 2023, which is over $60 million less than last year. This means management has 60$ million to spend this offseason to match 2022’s payroll, not including any extra money the Rangers could likely spend.
With a star-studded free agency class and money to spend, the Texas Rangers are primed to make another huge splash this offseason. That being said, this episode I will give my prediction for the 2023 Opening Day rotation.

One player the Rangers have their eyes on is Jacob DeGrom. Stick with Talkin Texas Rangers as we dive into more offseason news.

The Texas Rangers have a lot to needs to fill before the next season. This includes pitching and offensive. While the Rangers were disappointing this season, there's still a chance the Rangers could see themselves as World Series champions.
Most experts won’t pick the Texas Rangers to win the 2023 World Series when they make their preseason predictions. Despite the hiring of three-time World Series champion manager Bruce Bochy and the expectation that Texas will invest significant money in free agency for the second offseason in a row, the Rangers still have a long way to go before the rest of the league takes them seriously as a contender.
However, we’ve seen multiple teams in the past several years respond to a losing season with a World Series championship in the following year. In fact, since the playoffs expanded in 1995, five teams have won a championship after finishing with a record below .500 the year before.

The 2022 season has concluded for the Rangers, and while it wasn't the greatest year for Rangers baseball, it did have some good moments. Marcus Semien continued to grow, hitting is slowly improving. In hopes of making 2023 the year of the Rangers, new management has been brought in with Bruce Bochy joining as manager. The team looks to improve the pitching staff, but could that mean a potential deal for Clayton Kershaw?

With the season winding down and the Rangers out off playoff contention, the focus turns on improving for the 2023 season. With that, the need is definitely pitching and one source of great pitchers and hitters is the Nippon Professional Baseball. MLB has seen some great players come from the NPB including Shohei Ohtani, Yu Darvish. Now all eyes are on the pitching sensation Koudai Senga. Could he be the next Yu Darvish?

A lot of money was invested in this season’s Texas Rangers roster: a whopping grand total of $500+ million went on the ledgers of owners Ray Davis and Bob Simpson. And while the Rangers won the off-season, the results have not been quite as good as people might have expected over two months into the 2022 season.
A roughly average team (which is what the Texas Rangers are at the moment) won’t produce many All-Stars at the end of the day, but the one (or ones) who could be representing the Rangers in Los Angeles in July aren’t necessarily the ones you would’ve expected heading into 2022.
Fan balloting has officially opened for the Midsummer Classic (vote now for your Rangers! ), so let’s rank the potential Texas Rangers representatives to Dodger Stadium next month.
We also give our weekly Who's Hot, Who's Not list and give our thoughts on a wild and crazy victory on Sunday.

On Tuesday, the Texas Rangers played the Tampa Bay Rays at Globe Life Field in the final game of May, capping off a 17-10 month of May, their winningest month since 2019.
The Rangers defeated Tampa 3-0 in that game. With the win, the Rangers improved to 24-24 and got to .500 for the first time this season. The win also improved the Rangers’ odds at securing one of the three wild card spots in the AL, as they got within two games. Now, they enter the month of June in as good of a position as they’ve been in some time.
Texas, which started this season absolutely slow, is now starting to turn the corner as they are playing good baseball. Many people predicted the Rangers to finish near the bottom of baseball once again this season, albeit improved, and the sluggish start only reaffirmed those suspicions. Now, though? They’re flirting with a playoff spot! But can they sustain this current streak of success?

The Rangers are two games into their second* longest road trip of the season. They’ve split the first two games of the trip, and play two more against the Astros this weekend before heading to the West Coast for two games at Anaheim and four games against the A’s.
- It was going to be tied for the longest road trip of the season, but since the lockout scrambled the early season scheduling, the Rangers play a road game in Miami on the Thursday after the All Star Game before heading to the West Coast for ten games. Thanks, Manfred.

The Texas Rangers had quite a turnaround of events over the past week. Last weekend, they took two out of three against the defending World Series Champion Atlanta Braves. Then, they swept the Philadelphia Phillies in a two-game series.
What has me and other fans excited is that the starting pitchers seem to be really getting deep into games now and the relief pitching doesn’t have to carry the load. Speaking of the bullpen, they’ve been really good too lately.

It can be difficult to admit failure. No one would be shocked if the Texas Rangers finally realized Kole Calhoun just isn’t viable any longer as a starting outfielder in the major leagues.
Calhoun, signed to a one-year, $5 million contract during the off-season, isn’t providing any value to the Rangers right now. In fact, he’s providing negative value, at -0.3 bWAR, from his post in right field. A player who used to routinely beat up on Texas, the 34-year-old just isn’t that player anymore.

Every year at this time, there’s optimism. A fresh start for all 30 MLB teams. But for the Texas Rangers, some of that optimism may be justified. Coming off an off-season that saw the team splurge on top free agents, as well as improving the roster in general, the Rangers are set to begin the 2022 season with higher expectations than 2021, yet still not reaching the point of contention. That looks to be on the 2023 agenda. This and more on the newest episode of Talkin Texas Rangers.

Mark Teixeira was traded by Jon Daniels and the Texas Rangers to the Atlanta Braves at the July 31st trade deadline in 2007. This led to a massive curse of struggles at First Base. Now heading into the 2021 season, the Rangers have a serious surplus at first base, meaning this Spring Training competition will definitely be exciting.Share your thoughts with us on Twitter: www.twitter.com/talkintxrangersLike us on Facebook: www.facebook.com/talkintexasrangersThanks to our Sponsor MLB Shop, where you can buy all your authentic Texas Rangers gear.
