Texas Rangers to sign former Yankees’ 1B Greg Bird per report

The Texas Rangers continue to add depth with big league experience to their organization this offseason most recently agreeing to a minor league deal with former Yankees’ first baseman, Greg Bird. The deal, reported by George A. King III of the New York Post, includes an invitation to major league Spring Training.

Bird, 27, made his big league debut in 2015 with the Yankees and played parts of the 2017-2019 seasons with the AL side of New York. The 6’4″ first baseman has dealt with his fair share of injuries throughout his career including a torn labrum that required surgery and an ankle issue that prompted him going under the knife.
