Free-agent outfielder Jose Bautista isn't well-liked by Texas Rangers players and fans, but that didn't stop his agent from giving the team a call.
According to the Jeff Wilson of the Fort Worth Star-Telegram, Baustista's agent, Jay Alou, reached out to the Rangers about the slugger. A baseball source told Wilson that the conversations didn't go anywhere and aren't expected to advance.
The Rangers and their fans didn't exactly see Bautista's bat flip during Game 5 of the 2015 AL Division Series in a favorable light. Texas second baseman Rougned Odor punched Bautista in the face when the the Blue Jays visited the Rangers this past May.
