Rangers not expected to pursue closer
Beltre crosses the plate ARLINGTON -- Third baseman Adrian Beltre said the Rangers have a "really good" team. He believes the Rangers will be competitive this year.
But the future Hall of Famer would like to make one more addition.
"We don't have a closer right now," Beltre said Tuesday. "That's an area that's going to be a question mark. Normally, when you have really good teams, you have one. You have closers out there in the free-agent market. … Ideally for me, you get a closer, put him in there and use him."
The obvious closer on the free-agent market is Greg Holland, who saved 45 games for the Rockies last season. The Rangers are not actively pursuing him.
