The Texas Rangers 40 man roster changed significantly at the trade deadline, as did the outlook for the 40 man roster this offseason, so its a good time to take a look at where the Rangers’ 40 man roster stands now, and what decisions the Rangers will have to make in regards to the 40 man roster this offseason.
First, a rundown of the current 40 man roster, which consists of 39 players currently occupying spots and 5 players on the 60 day disabled list:
Alex Claudio
Ronald Herrera
Joe Palumbo
Shin-Soo Choo
Of that group, there are 5 free agents — Barnette, Colon, Gallardo, Beltre and Moore (assuming his option is declined, which it definitely will be).
