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