DALLAS (105.3 The Fan) - The Texas Rangers have inserted themselves into the high-priced reliever market, according to Jon Heyman of FanCred Sports.
Rangers are a semi surprise entry at the top of the bullpen market. They are considering at least Adam Ottavino and Zach Britton and could be a legit challenge to yanks and others linked to those 2 pen stars.
