The Texas Rangers thought enough of pitcher Pete Fairbanks to draft him in the ninth round of the 2015 Major League Baseabll Amateur Draft, why not bring him back to Texas?
Unfortunately, after making his way through the organization's farm system and making it to the majors in 2019, he only took the mound for Texas in eight games, throwing just 8.2 innings before being traded away for Tampa Bay Rays minor leaguer Nick Solak.
Now, six years later, they have a realistic shot to bring the imposing six-foot-six, 240-pound closer back to Arlington to fill a huge hole in the bullpen heading into next spring.
