@NewbergReport If we're going to increase payroll by that said amount I would rather have Weaver

Do you really want Senzatela here? And increasing payroll to do it (meaning limiting other opportunities)?
Clark Bosslet@thoughtbomb
@NewbergReport I threw out Josh Smith for Antonio Senzatela, who's making $12M this year and who's been pretty bad since June. Can we afford to take on $4m for a middle reliever if they send Smith the other way? Rockies need help at 2B and can bet on Smith recovering his 3 WAR form.

@AgRunner @Evan_P_Grant That was some good @&>/ by Gore to go 7 complete and save the bullpen!!!

The Rangers have made a late change to the bottom half of batting order. Foscue drops to 8th. Lopez, Cauley and Osuna all move up a spot. Not seen a batting order change this late, nobody coming out of lineup, just half the spots adjusted.
Evan Grant@Evan_P_Grant
Rangers vs lefty tonight
English
Test your pattern recognition.
What comes next?
Guess a next number
English
@Hookem214 @yarnell99 @NewbergReport Yes, presently better with the bat than Wynns, but at 3 times the price, and Wynns will be gone when Higgy or Jansen get back.
English
Sorta surprising that DET didn't wait to see if Rogers could bring a tier-3 prospect by Monday.
Bob Nightengale@BNightengale
The Detroit Tigers announce that popular catcher Jake Rogers is being DFA’d, and yes, Tarik Skubal will be making his start tomorrow, perhaps the last one in a Tigers’ uniform
English
@RobinBlueWater @NewbergReport The Rangers do not have the prospect capital to make that deal.
English
@NewbergReport Yeah. I hate this for him and I hate that it probably eliminates the Rangers going for it and getting him.
English
@bdogfree69 @Evan_P_Grant What are going to do with Joc Pederson?
English
@Evan_P_Grant This is why I say make Duran your ss and Seager the dh, am I crazy?
English
The question that sticks with me on Seager is this: It seems that you now must treat this as a player with a back condition, not a one-off injury. And that only brings reliability into question that much more. He works hard, he does his best, but how reliable can he be?
English
@gmcmretired @TXRangersPR He does live just outside of Austin, so he will probably take the assignment.
English
@TXRangersPR He knows if he takes an assignment to RR, he'll be recalled,
English
Rangers transactions for Tuesday:
-RHP Gavin Collyer recalled from Round Rock (AAA)
-RHP Chris Paddack designated for assignment
English
@TexasBBQ300 @kennlandry Unless the Rangers can extend him, he will have become a free agent already.
English
@kennlandry He needs to tone it down to 90% and save the 100% for the playoffs when we get back in 2031.
English
Wyatt Langford first felt his hamstring get tight on this hustle double on Friday.
Skip Schumaker: "That's what's so frustrating. He did it on an effort play."
English
@zachbdick1 @Evan_P_Grant The radio announcers said that he got up and walked off on his own.
English
@joeg414 @Evan_P_Grant I guess you are not watching or listening. Latz and Junis were unavailable because of usage over the past week with both playing in 4 of the last 7 an both pitched in the first 2 games of the series with Toronto.
English
@rangerfanbrent @Evan_P_Grant I believe you are correct about Rocker and a closers mentality, but I also believe we may have a closer at this point in Latz. Now next year that's a different story.
English
@Evan_P_Grant I've been saying this since last season- this guy is a born closer.
Does not have the mentality to be a starter. That's not a knock. I truly believe that dude can come in 8th inning and shut the entire opposition down like nobody's business.
English
Kumar Rocker struck out career-high 9 in five innings tonight.
English
@csogard @GrantandTerry @Evan_P_Grant It's reminding of the the cry baby Mets fans, it's sad really, we are only 2 back in the division and 1.5 back in the wild card. The Rangers fan base need to have more faith, like the rest of us!!!
English
@GrantandTerry @Evan_P_Grant I think that it’s just unfortunate that the worst and most vocal seem to be the minority but they’re the majority of the ones that seem to post online
English
I am stunned by the fact there are fans saying this. A) It is a concussion B) More surprising is the sentiment; this guy was the WS MVP for the team's first title & in 3 years I'm hearing a lot of fans feeling uninvested in him.
Rych Rage@RychRage
@Evan_P_Grant He is such a coddled wus.
English
@NewbergReport Can any of you who comment, do any better, remember baseball players fail 70% of the time.
English
@RCastetter @TXRangersPR In the minors on a rehab assignment
English
Rangers transactions for Sunday:
-OF Alejandro Osuna (#19) recalled from Round Rock (AAA)
-OF Michael Helman placed on 10-day IL
English
English
@HexicanHill @TXRangersPR He is non optional he would have to be dfa and then we could lose him and get nothing
English
Rangers transactions for Saturday:
-RHP Joe Ross (#41) contract selected from Round Rock (AAA)
-RHP Luis Curvelo optioned to Round Rock (AAA)
-RHP Michel Otañez designated for assignment
English
@clarinetmike @Evan_P_Grant If there is a lockout next year, it will be because of the owners!!! There is absolutely NO need for a lockout!!!
English
@Evan_P_Grant don't know what to think. part of me thinks its time to burn it down for prospects. and get ready for long lockout next year.
English
Are the Rangers preparing contingency plans against RHP for Jake Burger's spot?
dallasnews.com/sports/rangers…
English
@DanielEStark @Evan_P_Grant Yes he started the season with 5.007 years of service, so yes he has the time and the right to retain his money.
English
@Evan_P_Grant He was signed to a major league contract. If he refuses an outright assignment, does he have the service time to give up the (à la Dunning)?
English
Unfortunate timing for this, Sam had a rough start this year &opps were limited because of games vs. lefties. He was a big-time contributor when healthy last year. And he’s a good presence in a clubhouse
Evan Grant@Evan_P_Grant
Sam Haggerty has been DFA after coming off bereavement leave to go with Seager/Langford activations
English
@rdavenport13 @Evan_P_Grant Look again roster count is accurate at 39. Mlb is always up to the minute, team site always lags it seems, but does currently show only 39.
English
@Evan_P_Grant Hey @Evan_P_Grant with Haggerty DFA I can’t figure out why the Rangers aren’t down a guy on the 40 man. And looks like MLB only shows 39. Am I missing something?
English
@MikeBacsik your answer to the best hitting team in baseball with 2 outs in 2026 is the LA Dodgers @2.62!!!
