The Notice It is one of the newest clubs to be linked with a free shortstop agent Trevor’s storyAnd the According to Evan Grant of the Dallas Morning News,. On the surface, it might seem a little ridiculous for the Keepers or Story to host a league. After all, Rangers have already signed two of the best free agents on the market Cory Seeger And the Marcus Simin.
But the Rangers have a gap in third base at the moment, and if Storey is indeed willing to entertain a position change and/or a short-term contract, which is the latest, Storeys in Texas is actually a lot smoother than it looks. At first glance. Even if the story isn’t the point, the Rangers have been known to look for a third baseman, going so far as to get close to the recently retired Kyle Seeger About the possibility of playing with his younger brother in Texas. The elder Seager, however, declined the offer, per MLB Network’s John Hyman (via Twitter).
After the story, there isn’t much choice left in the Rangers free agency to add a third primary man. Available players – good loriAnd the Asdrubal CabreraAnd the Starlin CastroAnd the Todd Fraser They are veterans who don’t necessarily upgrade to the internship options in Texas. For now, Rangers will establish a third rule through a committee approach while waiting for the lead to arrive and health Josh Jong. Despite his injury, Jung’s presence means the Rangers may only be interested in securing Story if they can do so with a very short-term deal.
without a story Andy IbanezAnd the Nick SolakAnd the Brad Miller All of them are candidates for regular playing time in the hot corner. Rangers also signed recently Matt Carpenter And the Charlie Colperson for minor league deals.
If Rangers end up signing Story, it would be a great sequence of events, not only because it would mean a 102-loss team signing three of their best free agent stops in a season, but because of the sequence of events that led Rangers and Story to where they could be This is possible.
It wasn’t long ago that Rangers existed Isaiah Keener Valiva Willing to return to the hot corner to be their regular third leader. But when Rangers replaced Keener Valiva with twins for the catcher Mitch GarverOffseason’s machinations are already on high gear. Kiner-Falefa ended up as the Yankees’ pick in the shortstop (at least for now), which opened the shortstop back in Minnesota, probably, for a while. short term agreement With Carlos Correa. If Storey is willing to take a similar style deal to the Correa deal, the Rangers could pounce and be the beneficiary.
Of course, they’re not the only team interested. The Yankees themselves have recently been linked to Story as well, although they recently acquired Kiner-Falefa and Josh Donaldson. The Red Sox also lurks, although like the Rangers, they’ve asked Storey to stay away from his favorite spot.
Hey man suggest that Yankees And the Astros He would “probably have an advantage” to sign Story because they would allow him to stay a short distance away. The Yankees reportedly discussed a four-year contract with Korea that included opting out before signing with Minnesota, Andy Martinx from SNY (via Twitter). A similar contract structure might be enough to stand out in the story, assuming a more modest value. The story won’t come cheap, but it will be cheaper than Korea, which seems to be fueling the interest of the Yankees. All that said, it’s kind of crowded, with Anthony Rizzo Now the pencils are at first base, Giancarlo Stanton DH spot closure, and Jaleber TorresKiner-Falefa, and Donaldson are already breaking in DJ Limaheugame time.
The Rocky Make one last call to Story before inking Chris BryantAnd the According to Nick Grok of AthleticE, but this door appears to be closed. From the same division, the Giants are the other team that was mentioned As a potential student for Story. The giants Owns Brandon Crawford Briefly , Evan Longoria In third place and Tommy La Stella In second place, the trio that would surely make way for Story, this should be his final landing spot.
