This hasn’t been an ordinary week of pro-scouting meetings for the Texas Rangers.
It’s also been the continuation of their managerial search.
General manager Jon Daniels confirmed that multiple candidates have interviewed this week at the Surprise Recreation Campus, and former Oakland A’s third baseman Eric Chavez is among them.
Another possibility is Stubby Clapp, the St. Louis Cardinals’ manager who is also managing the Surprise Saguaros in the Arizona Fall League. The Saguaros are using the Rangers’ facilities this fall.
The Rangers were also expecting to interview Houston Astros bench coach Joe Espada face to face after speaking to him via phone before the American League Championship Series.
