The navies claimed the outfall Leody Taveras Rangers, according to the announcements of the two clubs. The Rangers recalled the outfall Evan Carter To take its place on the list, a decision that had been reported before. Right -handed Luis F. Castillonot to be confused with Luis Castillowas appointed for the mission by the M to open a place of 40 men for the complaint.
Taveras, 26, will join a new organization for the first time. The Rangers signed it as an international amateur in 2015, giving it a notable bonus of $ 2.1 million. He became the best hope of the club and one of the 100 best in the League for a few years. As a major feature, he was useful but not quite a star. His speed and defense allowed him to make significant contributions for the Rangers, although his offense was less consistent.
When he arrived in the majors, he struck a little, but he was still at the beginning of the twenty at the time. In 2023, he managed to reduce punhets to a manageable rate by 21.1%. He still doesn’t work much, just a rate of 6.3%, but he put the ball on the fence 14 times. All this led to a .266 / .312 / .421 and a 100 WRC +, indicating that it was exactly the average of the marble league.
Given his other talents, the average offensive was completely acceptable. He also stole 14 bases and obtained strong notes for his defense on the ground. The Fangraphs considered him worth 2.4 victories above the replacement of the year because he helped the Rangers load their very first championship.
He fell a little last year. Its walking rate actually jumped at 7.9% and its withdrawal rate is essentially stable, slightly colliding at 21.2%. His total of Home Run has also not changed much, going to 12, but with 25 appearances in less plates. His stick to the stick on the balls in play fell to. 272, after being 0.318 the previous year. He finished the 2024 season with a line .229 / .289 / .352 and 82 WRC +. However, with his 23 interceptions and gloves, he produced 1.1 FWAR.
Here in 2025, his offense fell. Thanks to 82 plates appearances, it has a 2.4%walking rate, a 28%withdrawal rate, .241 / .259 / .342 and 68 WRC +. This is part of a greater constellation of difficulties in Texas, as guys as Marcus Semien And JOC PEDERSON are also bad in difficulty. Jake BurgerThe crisis was stiff enough to be optional for minors while Taveras was placed on derogations. The club also dismissed the offensive coordinator Donnie Ecker and hired Bret Boone as a typing coach to try to launch the offensive.
For the navy, it is a Buy-Bas movement, with some echoes of their Víctor robles pick up. Robles was also a notable perspective with nationals who had struggled to click in the majors. The M slipped it last year after the Nats released it. Robles then performed well with Seattle, enough to sign it to a small extension last year, just a few months after bringing it on board.
Robles has unfortunately been sidelined by an dislocated left shoulder and is probably still a few months old. Luke Raley Replaced him in the right field, but he recently struck the Il himself due to an oblique tension. Recently, they played guys like Rhylan Thomas And Miles mastrobuoni There, which is far from ideal. Thomas has so far only ten appearances in the major league and has not done much with them. Mastrobuoni is a guy in light utility. Dylan Moore has been reinstated from the injured list today, but it could be necessary on the ground, with Ben Williamson Producing an attack less than the third base of its first 70 appearances on the Big League plates.
Presumably, Taveras will be in the mixture to help on the right. He only played Center Field in his major league career, although the Julio Rodriguez There every day. Taveras has played in the corners of minors and most fields of field can move to the left or right without problem. Some peloton matches in the range are possible. Taveras is a switch to the better numbers as a left -handed. Moore and Williamson are both right-handed, so maybe they can take the third land and the right field when difficult left-handers are on the mound.
More to come.
