The Texas Rangers didn’t want the media to see Matt Bush on Monday at Cook Children’s Medical Center without first announcing why he was even there.
Bush wasn’t tendered a 2019 contract last month, making him a free agent. He hadn’t been a member of the Rangers for nearly 30 days, so why would he have been at the hospital visiting kids and spreading holiday cheer?
Well, because the right-hander is back in the organization.
The Rangers have signed Bush to a minor-league contract with an invitation to spring training, along with three others.
