The Rangers are targeting “defensive upgrades across the field,” said GM Ross Fenstermaker.

Fenstermaker singled out catcher and, with Evan Carter unavailable for the start of the year after hip surgery, center field. At catcher, the Rangers will have Danny Jansen back to finish up a two-year deal, and they’re also currently employing Logan O’Hoppe, though he seems like an obvious non-tender candidate. They should have some interest in Carson Kelly in free agency, but with limited funds available, perhaps Jake Rogers or Austin Hedges would make sense.
