Best Rangers Fits Among Remaining Free Agents

The Texas Rangers have made two moves in free agency involving pitching — Kirby Yates and Tyler Mahle. They haven't exactly spent a ton of money in their World Series title defense.

Two things are in play, however. First, the Rangers have most of their offensive firepower and rotation under contract for 2024. Second, the protracted uncertainty of their 2024 local TV contract — and the money that comes with it — is likely playing a role in their wait-and-see approach.

That doesn’t mean there aren’t options still available.

Earlier this year, The Athletic published its top 40 free agents. Some have flown off the board, such as Shohei Ohtani. But, as of Monday evening, more than half of the free agents listed remain available.

Here are five free agents still available from the list that would best fit the Rangers' needs.
