The Texas Rangers are already laying the groundwork for what could be an active offseason, with both re-signings and new additions on the agenda.
According to team sources, the front office’s top priority is to retain veteran pitchers Nathan Eovaldi and Andrew Heaney, both viewed as crucial pieces of the rotation. Eovaldi, despite being sidelined by injury this season, remains highly valued for his leadership and postseason pedigree.
The Rangers are also exploring the international market, having met with Japanese ace Roki Sasaki, a 23-year-old star whose blazing fastball and poise have drawn attention across Major League Baseball. Analysts suggest Sasaki would be an ideal fit in Texas as the club looks to fortify its pitching staff.
Beyond marquee names, the Rangers could pursue more cost-effective free agents. Left-hander Ryan Yarbrough and veteran outfielder Randal Grichuk are among players linked to Texas as possible depth and lineup reinforcements.
Industry speculation further points to the Rangers as potential suitors for top free-agent arms such as Ranger Suárez and Dylan Cease, signaling that the front office remains open to bold moves if the right opportunity emerges.
With several key players battling injuries in 2025, the Rangers appear determined to ensure a deeper roster heading into the 2026 campaign. Fans should expect the defending champions to be active once the market opens.
