Rangers Lock In Squad for Impending Season Start
Key Roster Additions and Departures Announced
In a pivotal move for the Texas Rangers, the organization has officially integrated outfielder and designated hitter Andrew McCutchen into their ranks, securing his contract. To facilitate this addition and maintain roster balance, outfielder Dairon Blanco has been designated for assignment, making room for McCutchen's veteran presence.
Injuries Impacting Early Season Lineup
The team will commence the season with two key players sidelined due to injuries. Infielder Cody Freeman has been placed on the 10-day injured list, while pitcher Cody Bradford is set to miss a longer period, having been added to the 15-day injured list. These early season setbacks will require other players to step up and fill the void.
Veteran Non-Roster Invitees Head to Round Rock
Several experienced players who were part of the non-roster invitee group, including pitchers Austin Gomber, Cal Quantrill, and Josh Sborz, as well as infielder Tyler Wade, will continue their journey with the organization. They have been assigned to the Round Rock Express, the Rangers' Triple-A affiliate, indicating they remain integral to the team's depth and future plans.
