It’s not a secret that the Texas Rangers are in full rebuild mode and have their eyes on being competitive a few years down the road. Part of this rebuild means determining which players currently on the roster will make it to the end result. A few players aren’t going anywhere like Rougned Odor and Isiah Kiner-Falefa. But could the once untouchable Nomar Mazara be traded this offseason to free up a crowded outfield? If he could be, why would the Rangers even be considering this?

The main reason Nomar Mazara could make his way out of Arlington is the gap between how long he’s under team control, and when the Rangers can expect to be competitive again.
