Monday Morning Texas Rangers Update
The latest on the once and future World Series champion Texas Rangers
Good morning. The Texas Rangers suffered a heartbreaking loss to the Minnesota Twins in their season finale, effectively eliminating them from playoff contention, according to Shawn McFarland. The Rangers went 2-4 in their final two series, dropping them to third place in the American League West by a game, as reported by Jeff Wilson.
The team expressed disappointment in their performance this season, noting they have missed the postseason for the third consecutive year, according to Kennedi Landry. Despite being in the worst division in history, it was the "big guys" who underperformed for Texas, as Evan Grant pointed out. Jacob Latz's emergence as a contributing player could be seen as a silver lining for the Rangers in 2026, as noted by ESPN's Bradford Doolittle.
Former general manager Jon Daniels has dropped out of contention for the top decision-making position with the Oakland Athletics, as reported by Bob Nightengale.
