We had slowed up a bit on our GM Mode series expecting the Texas Rangers to start making deadline moves by now. However, here we are, less than a week away from the MLB Trade Deadline and the Rangers have done nothing of note. In fact, nobody has really done anything of note. Everybody seems stuck in a holding pattern, not sure how to approach the new deadline format that did away with the August waiver period and gave teams just one deadline to try and make moves. The Rangers seem locked in as sellers now after a rough stretch of games following the MLB All-Star break but it’s almost as if they don’t want to be the first to make a move.
