Tuesday Morning Texas Rangers Update

Good morning.

Evan Grant writes that the Rangers have engaged in talks with Nicholas Castellanos and Todd Frazier as part of their Nolan Arenado contingency plan.

T.R. Sullivan is tasked with projecting the 2020 Opening Day roster for the Rangers when they presumably haven’t finished putting together the team.

The meager return the Indians received in the Corey Kluber trade ranks among the most unexpected things to happen this winter according to MLB dot com’s Anthony Castrovince.

Andrew Simon looks at the remaining free agents that could be signed to round out a roster as the perfect 26th man.

Ferguson Jenkins, the first Texas Rangers player to ever be inducted into the Hall of Fame (along with Gaylord Perry in 1991), is No. 81 on Joe Posnanski’s list of the 100 greatest players in baseball history.

And, finally, Jeff Wilson notes that, as long as you’re no further away than Abilene, the Rangers are coming to your Texas town for the Winter Caravan! You can meet the likes of Joey Gallo, Elvis Andrus, and Willie Calhoun! Also, sorry, Fort Worth but you drew C.J. Nitkowski.

Have a nice day!
