The Rangers did not offer contracts to Adolis Garcia and Jonah Heim​ after both stars struggled at the plate over the past two seasons.

The Texas Rangers are aiming to get younger and less expensive next season. Their non-tender moves on Friday reflected that desire.

The Rangers non-tendered the contracts of outfielder Adolis García and catcher Jonah Heim before Friday night’s roster deadline, a person with direct knowledge of the decisions confirmed to The Dallas Morning News, and ended their multi-year tenures with the team.

Rangers outfielder Adolis Garcia and catcher Jonah Heim headline the list of 66 MLB arbitration eligible players who were not tendered contracts by their respective teams on Friday.

Semien has three seasons and $72 million remaining on the $175 million, seven-year contract he signed with the Rangers in December 2021. That was at the same time they, also in free agency, added MVP shortstop Corey Seager on a $325 million, 10-year contract.
