ARLINGTON, Texas -- Chris Young has a contract extension and a new title with the Texas Rangers after nearly four years as general manager that included overseeing his hometown team's first World Series title.
The Rangers on Friday announced a multiyear contract extension for Young and his promotion to president of baseball operations.
Young was hired as general manager in December 2020 and took over leadership of the team's entire baseball operations group in August 2022. The Rangers were World Series champions last year but went into Friday night's game at Seattle 7½ games back in both the American League West and the wild-card chase with 15 games to play.
