While the world and in particular the state of Texas look to edge their way back to a “normal” life in the wake of the COVID-19 pandemic, the impact that the country-wide shutdown has had on the sports world continues to be felt. Evan Grant of the Dallas Morning News reported on Friday that the Texas Rangers were planning to institute pay cuts for some of their full-time staff beginning on May 15.
News of this cut comes not long after the club committed to not furloughing or laying off employees through the end of May, a commitment many teams across the league have made despite a delayed start to the season which is rapidly approaching two months.
