As you may have heard, the Texas Rangers signed third baseman Matt Davidson to a minor league contract. Davidson played in 123 games with the Chicago White Sox last year. He hit .228 with 20 home runs. You may have also heard that the Rangers will be giving him the opportunity to hit and pitch.
Davidson has two claims to fame. The first one: hitting three home runs in the Sox’s 2018 opening day game against the Kansas City Royals. That was a nice start to his season. Second: striking out Giancarlo Stanton on a nasty 12-6 curveball.
