Former Los Angeles Dodgers outfielder Joc Pederson was introduced as a member of the Texas Rangers on Monday after the two sides finalized a two-year, $37-million contract and completed his physical.
The designated hitter made his intentions clear after joining the American League West and immediately becoming a rival of the Houston Astros.

“They put together a nice little run, and it’s coming to an end,” Pederson said.
