ARLINGTON, Texas -- The Rangers have hired former Miami Marlins manager Skip Schumaker as a senior adviser for baseball operations.
Texas officially announced Schumaker's addition to its front office on Wednesday, when the team also signed right-handed pitcher Luis Curvelo to a major league contract.
Schumaker was the 2023 National League Manager of the Year after Miami went 84-78 and made the fourth postseason appearance in club history. The Marlins slipped to 62-100 last season after general manager Kim Ng, who was responsible for hiring Schumaker and building the roster that made the playoffs, opted not to return to the organization.
