The 2022-2023 Texas Rangers offseason is already off to a bang after GM Chris Young and the front office re-signed all-star Martin Perez, brought in Jacob deGrom who is one of the best pitchers in baseball, and signed Andrew Heaney. The club is still active in the pitching market and looking to add a middle-of-the-order bat. However, if you’re like …
The Texas Rangers have done a fair amount of work to their rotation this off-season. Adding Jacob Degrom, Andrew Heaney, Jake Odorizzi, and Martin Perez so far. Pitching was a problem in 2022, even with the All-Star season by Perez. Gray was good, but health was an issue. With the ban of the shift, the offense should be more productive, …
The Texas Rangers and Martin Perez have agreed to the qualifying offer of $19.65MM. That is a significant raise from 2022 for Perez. Now that the Rangers have 3/5ths of their rotation in place, it is time for me to project what it will look like in 2023. I always enjoy trying to guess how the roster will look. Opening …
I am currently confused with the lack of contract offer to one Martin Perez. While talking to Eric Nadel, Rangers Hall of Fame radio broadcaster, for the Ranger Report Podcast, he said that Martin Perez was basically a steal for the Texas Rangers in 2022.

It is the first such honor of Pérez’s career. On Wednesday, he was previously announced as a unanimous selection for Rangers May Player of the Month. Pérez is the first Texas …
May I present to you, your AL pitcher of the month in May……… Martin Perez (see what I did there) If before the season started I would have told you that there was a pitcher who has a .142 ERA with a WHIP of 0.932, you would have said “Wow Jacob DeGrom is having a really good start to his …
The Texas Rangers are playing competitive baseball for the first time in 3 seasons. In 2020 (COVID shortened season) the Rangers almost lost 40 out of 60 games. In 2021 they lost over 100 games. 2022 began rough for the Texas Rangers but they have significantly improved the last few weeks. They are 5-5 in their last 10 games and …
Martin Perez was signed by the Texas Rangers in the off-season to no acclaim whatsoever. In fact, Rangers fans were not happy about the signing, most saying just another washed up signing.
