The Texas Rangers are going to add pitchers to their rotation this offseason. I can pretty much guarantee you that. Now the path they go to adding this pitching varies. The most straightforward is through the free agent market which features top names like Gerrit Cole, Stephen Strasburg and Hyun-Jin Ryu. However, if Texas is looking to add multiple starting arms, perhaps going to the trade market could net them a quality starter in a beneficial deal.
Evan Grant of the Dallas Morning News reported earlier this week that the “Rangers have had internal discussions about the possibilities” of adding one of the Boston Red Sox starters via trade.
