Jeff Passan has a big ol’ offseason preview covering everything from free agency to the potential trade market. Notably, he writes that the Texas Rangers are trying to trade Jonah Heim and Adolis Garcia ahead of Friday’s tender deadline.
R.J. Anderson includes Heim as a prime non-tender decision, along with others like former 2023 World Champion Gold Glove infield teammate Nathaniel Lowe.
Kennedi Landry’s newsletter for this week covers the return of El Blondi Travis Jankowski as he begins his big league coaching career as a part of Skip Schumaker’s inaugural staff.
Topics covered include his time with the Rangers, his unceremonious end, people inextricably linked to him such as Ron Washington, Michael Young, and Josh Hamilton, and what it was like watching the Rangers win the World Series. Congrats on receiving that well-deserved ring, JD!
