Rangers Making Moves this Winter
Thursday, 19 December, 2024
The Texas Rangers entered this offseason facing a severe bullpen shortage after numerous relievers departed in free agency. While familiar names like José Leclerc, Kirby Yates, José Ureña, and David Robertson remain on the market, none have been seriously linked to a return to Arlington. But on Wednesday, FanSided’s Robert Murray reported that the Rangers took their first step in rebuilding the ‘pen by signing reliever Jacob Webb to a one-year deal.In this video, we break down what Webb brings to the table. We’ll cover his recent performance with the Baltimore Orioles, where he consistently delivered better-than-league-average results. His pitching arsenal—featuring a four-seam fastball, sweeper, and changeup—kept hitters off balance, with some pitches limiting opponents to a batting average as low as .125.This move is the latest in a flurry of transactions by the Rangers, who just added Nathan Eovaldi and pulled off a surprise trade for Jake Burger. Clearly, the organization isn’t satisfied with their 78-win 2024 season and is determined to improve. While the bullpen rebuild isn’t complete, adding Webb is an encouraging first step toward stabilizing a unit that ended last season near the bottom of the league in ERA. Stay tuned as we discuss what’s next for the Rangers and how they can continue to strengthen their bullpen heading into 2025.Listen now wherever you get your podcasts! 🎧Sponsor:Gametime: https://gametime.hnyj8s.net/c/2653816/742962/10874Fanatics: https://www.fanatics.com/mlb-texas-rangers/o-2365+t-70564589+z-90414-119259264Follow Us on Social Media:Facebook www.facebook.com/talkintexasrangersTwitter: https://twitter.com/talkintxrangersSupport the Show:Buy Me a Coffee: http://www.buymeacoffee.com/ttrangersSupport this podcast at — https://redcircle.com/talkin-texas-rangers/donations
