Last Tuesday, Jon Daniels laid out some of the plans and expectations for the Texas Rangers heading into the long offseason. After a dismal 67-96 season, many fans were hoping that Texas would jumpstart their rebuild by making a somewhat notable splash in the free agent market this year. Nobody was expecting the Rangers to be going after free agent class headliners like Bryce Harper or Manny Machado. However, many, myself included, hoped we’d see the Rangers go after starting pitching in a top heavy class.
Our hopes though may not be realized over the next few months.
