Andrus arrives to Rangers camp with Beltre update. Is he regretting decision to retire?

The music started blaring Saturday morning in the Texas Rangers’ clubhouse just as the beat reporters entered, confirming that Elvis Andrus had reported to spring training.

Andrus has controlled clubhouse volume for years, either with his diverse selection of tunes or by using his outdoor voice indoors.

Now, he controls the clubhouse.

His good buddy and traveling companion Adrian Beltre has left the building, retiring in November after 21 seasons and eight with the Rangers. Andrus, the longest-tenured Rangers player, will be looked upon to fill the leadership shoes.
