MLB insider links Rangers' old World Series champion catcher to in-state rivals

Never thought the rumors would get to this but Jonah Heim might make sense as an addition to the Texas Rangers' fiercest rivals in the Lone Star State.

After being non-tendered in November, Heim is looking for a new place to call home. He's been linked to a handful of teams, including the Tampa Bay Rays, Pittsburgh Pirates and Philadelphia Phillies. Another name on that list according to Bleacher Report's Joel Reuter is the Houston Astros.
