Texas Rangers Insider Lists Potential Pitching Trade Targets
The Texas Rangers will be active in free agency. The World Series champions are constantly linked to the likes of Shohei Ohtani and Josh Hader, as well as bringing back Jordan Montgomery.
But as one club insider point out, the trade market is a definite route to improving the roster. Rangers radio broadcaster Jared Sandler of 105.3 The Fan said to keep an eye on certain starting pitchers during an appearance on NBC 5’s “Big Game Sunday.”

“They’ve got some depth in certain areas that might allow them to get creative, so if the numbers don’t make sense on some of these free agents at the top of the market, I wouldn’t be surprised to see the Rangers in on maybe a guy like Corbin Burnes or someone like Dylan Cease or someone in that trade market,” Sandler told host Newy Scruggs. “What about a guy like Tyler Glasnow?”
Sander also addressed the Rangers’ depth, top prospect Wyatt Langford and a Dec. 3 event at Globe Life Field from The Sandlot Children’s Charity. Check out the entire conversation on nbcdfw.com.
Yankees After Free Agent Jordan Montgomery
The Texas Rangers obviously want Jordan Montgomery back. The left-handed starter starred in the postseason, as the Rangers captured the first World Series championship in franchise history.
Montgomery is a priority for Texas in free agency. Just as he is for other clubs.
The New York Yankees and St. Louis Cardinals are mentioned often when it comes to pursuing Montgomery. He also previously pitched for both teams before coming to the Rangers. The Boston Red Sox have also met with Montgomery’s representation.
