Get the best coverage of the Big Game and become a Diehard today! https://alldlls.com/intro-offer-youtube     The Texas Rangers play just their fourth game of spring training today, so a lot will happen the rest of the way to shape the Opening Day roster. But why wait. We take a stab at selecting the Opening Day roster, 13 pitchers and 13 positions players, based on reading some tea leaves from manager Skip Schumaker. We also catch up on camp notes, headlined by an injury to Cody Freeman, and take a look at the ABS system and how the Rangers hope it will be implemented.   00:00 - INTRO 01:45 - Camp Roundup 18:35 - Roster Prediction 34:40 - More Predicitons 37:45 - ABS in Action 47:40 - Batting Cleanup   #mlb #springtraining #texasrangers #texas   An ALLCITY Network Production   SUBSCRIBE: https://www.youtube.com/@DLLS_Sports   ALL THINGS DLLS:   WEBSITE: https://store.allcitynetwork.com/collections/dlls-locker   BUY MERCH: http://DLLSLocker.com   FOLLOW ON SOCIAL: Twitter: @DLLS_Sports Instagram: @DLLS_Sports   Become a DLLS Diehard and get access to premium content, our Discord channel, discounts on merch, and a free shirt!

Texas Rangers manager Skip Schumaker joins the show as spring training games are about to begin, and he covers everything happening inside camp. Schumaker talks about Evan Carter's physical growth and mindset entering camp, why Brandon Nimmo could be a major influence in the Rangers outfield, and how the team plans to be more aggressive on the bases in 2026. He explains why players will have the green light, what second tier speed really means, and why he does not want guys playing tight. There's also insight on the young pitchers attacking hitters, why comparing prospects to Craig Kimbrel is tricky, what he looks for once games start, and how the new coaching staff has already made an impact inside the clubhouse.

Become a Diehard today! https://alldlls.com/join/ The Texas Rangers kick off Cactus League play Friday after a week of pitchers and catchers workouts and plenty of activity for position players. Manager Skip Schumaker joins to talk about the state of the team heading into the first spring games, including a handful of young arms who have flashed and could be closer to the big leagues than expected as camp continues. Schumaker also discussed adapting to new elements this spring, including how he plans to use the ABS system during games and how live batting practice has been a highlight of early workouts. Off the field, the baseball world was rocked this week when MLB Players Association executive director Tony Clark resigned amid union leadership turmoil and an ongoing investigation, leaving negotiations and the union's future direction unclear. An ALLCITY Network Production SUBSCRIBE: https://www.youtube.com/@DLLS_Sports ALL THINGS DLLS: WEBSITE:https://store.allcitynetwork.com/collections/dlls-locker BUY MERCH:http://DLLSLocker.com FOLLOW ON SOCIAL:Twitter: @DLLS_SportsInstagram: @DLLS_Sports Become a DLLS Diehard and get access to premium content, our Discord channel, discounts on merch, and a free shirt!

Get the best coverage of the Big Game and become a Diehard today! https://alldlls.com/intro-offer-youtube   The story that won't go away was hopefully put to bed Monday morning when Texas Rangers shortstop Corey Seager met with the media and discussed his relationship with Marcus Semien after an offseason filled with innuendo. Seager didn't dive into details, but he said that he and Semien had mutual respect for each other and were professionals on the field. Semien has been traded, and new manager Skip Schumaker hopes to create a new clubhouse culture. More competitors than complainers, more inflators than deflators. Brandon Nimmo figures to play a role in that, and on the field he figures to be the Rangers' leadoff hitter. 00:00 - INTRO01:20 - Camp Roundup18:08 - Corey Seager on Team Chemistry32:25 - What Brandon Nimmo Can Bring47:07 - Batting Cleanup An ALLCITY Network Production SUBSCRIBE: https://www.youtube.com/@DLLS_Sports ALL THINGS DLLS: WEBSITE:https://store.allcitynetwork.com/collections/dlls-locker BUY MERCH:http://DLLSLocker.com FOLLOW ON SOCIAL:Twitter: @DLLS_SportsInstagram: @DLLS_Sports Become a DLLS Diehard and get access to premium content, our Discord channel, discounts on merch, and a free shirt!

Texas Rangers pitching coach Jordan Tiegs joins the show to break down everything happening inside Rangers camp. Tiegs dives into Jacob deGrom's mindset, Nathan Eovaldi's relentless pursuit of perfection, and what makes elite veterans different. He also discusses Alexis Díaz's mechanical tweaks, Robert Garcia's development in high-leverage spots, and the early competition for bullpen roles. Plus, insight on Kumar Rocker's offseason changes, Jake's next step forward, Kyle's veteran presence, and where top prospect Brock Porter stands heading into the season.

Cody Freeman is back in Surprise and he sounds like a player ready to take the next step. After finishing last season strong, Freeman heads into spring training competing for more than just a bench role. He talks about the opportunity at second base, staying uncomfortable in competition, and why nothing is ever given in this game. There's also insight into his offseason defensive focus, growing comfort in the outfield, and how working alongside guys like Josh Jung has shaped his path. Freeman opens up about the new coaching staff, the impact Brett Boone had on him mentally, and what it's been like working with Justin Viele this spring. Plus, some fun on the “Little Rascals” nickname, clubhouse chemistry, coffee habits, and life in camp. Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

Become a Diehard today! https://alldlls.com/join/ Texas Rangers top prospect Sebastian Walcott will undergo elbow surgery after a UCL tear was diagnosed during spring training, and he is expected to miss most or possibly all of the 2026 season. President of baseball operations Chris Young confirmed the diagnosis and surgical plan, with the Rangers monitoring whether the procedure will be an internal brace repair or a full Tommy John reconstruction.Despite the setback, Walcott — ranked among the game's best prospects and one of baseball's top young hitters — expressed optimism about his long-term future and possibility of returning to play late in the season if the recovery goes well. An ALLCITY Network Production SUBSCRIBE: https://www.youtube.com/@DLLS_Sports ALL THINGS DLLS: WEBSITE:https://store.allcitynetwork.com/collections/dlls-locker BUY MERCH:http://DLLSLocker.com FOLLOW ON SOCIAL:Twitter: @DLLS_SportsInstagram: @DLLS_Sports Become a DLLS Diehard and get access to premium content, our Discord channel, discounts on merch, and a free shirt!

Become a Diehard today! https://alldlls.com/join/ The Texas Rangers agreed to a one-year contract with left-hander Jordan Montgomery, reuniting with a key member of the team's 2023 World Series championship rotation. Montgomery's deal is reported at $1.25 million with performance bonuses, and he is expected to begin the season on the injured list as he continues rehabbing from hybrid UCL surgery. Montgomery missed the entire 2025 season after the surgery, but when healthy he was a major contributor to the Rangers' title run, posting a 2.79 ERA in 11 regular-season starts and winning two ALCS games. The move adds veteran depth behind a rotation headlined by Jacob deGrom, Nathan Eovaldi, MacKenzie Gore and Jack Leiter, with Montgomery projected to be ready around midseason as a second-half option. An ALLCITY Network Production SUBSCRIBE: https://www.youtube.com/@DLLS_Sports ALL THINGS DLLS: WEBSITE:https://store.allcitynetwork.com/collections/dlls-locker BUY MERCH:http://DLLSLocker.com FOLLOW ON SOCIAL:Twitter: @DLLS_SportsInstagram: @DLLS_Sports Become a DLLS Diehard and get access to premium content, our Discord channel, discounts on merch, and a free shirt!

Spring training will help determine the fifth starter. There are several candidates, technically, but Jacob Latz and Kumar Rocker are the front-runners. Could anyone else take the spot? Maybe veterans Cal Quantrill or Austin Gomber or prospect Jose Corniell.

The biggest question for the Texas Rangers entering Spring Training? Who is going to play second base? Jeff Wilson breaks down the options. Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company. See pcm.adswizz.com for information about our collection and use of personal data for advertising.

The Texas Rangers enter spring training without a defined closer, and that appears intentional. Rather than name a ninth-inning arm, the Rangers are expected to play matchups and attack late innings by “pockets,” using specific relievers based on lineup construction.

Tarik Skubal just reset the arbitration market. The Detroit Tigers ace won a record $32 million arbitration case for 2026, the largest award ever for an arbitration-eligible pitcher. The ruling raises new questions across Major League Baseball about how teams handle young frontline starters before free agency.For the Texas Rangers, the timing is interesting. Jack Leiter is a key part of the club's long-term rotation plans alongside Jacob deGrom, Nathan Eovaldi and MacKenzie Gore. With pitching salaries climbing and arbitration awards trending higher, does it make more sense for the Rangers to explore a team-friendly contract extension before Leiter's price climbs?

Their 2025 seasons were either bad or disappointing or both, but new hitting coach Justin Viele isn't seeking massive gains. Small steps will go a long way. Also, did the Tarik Skubal arbitration win make it more imperative for the Rangers to sign Jack Leiter to a team-friendly. Pitchers and catchers are always the first to work out at spring training, but the focus this year for the Texas Rangers is their offense. They made changes in the offseason, but really need internal improvements from three hitters. 00:00 - INTRO01:57 - Keys To Lineup17:50 - Rangers Lineup Predictions24:40 - Rangers News31:50 - Tarik Skubal Won Arbitration47:11 - Batting Cleanup An ALLCITY Network Production SUBSCRIBE: https://www.youtube.com/@DLLS_Sports ALL THINGS DLLS: WEBSITE:https://store.allcitynetwork.com/collections/dlls-locker BUY MERCH:http://DLLSLocker.com FOLLOW ON SOCIAL:Twitter: @DLLS_SportsInstagram: @DLLS_Sports Become a DLLS Diehard and get access to premium content, our Discord channel, discounts on merch, and a free shirt!

Second base. After trading Gold Glove winner Marcus Semien to the Mets for Brandon Nimmo, the Rangers chose to look inward rather than outside the organization to fill the opening. Five players are in the mix for the lone position battle of camp, with Josh Smith viewed as the early favorite. But as a left-handed hitter, Smith could wind up in a platoon with Ezequiel Duran, Cody Freeman, Sam Haggerty, or Michael Helman. Cody Freeman joins the show to talk about his offseason work, his expectations heading into camp, and how he views the competition at second base. We also look at how the Rangers might deploy the position once the season starts and whether a platoon approach makes the most sense. An ALLCITY Network Production SUBSCRIBE: https://www.youtube.com/@DLLS_Sports ALL THINGS DLLS: WEBSITE:https://store.allcitynetwork.com/collections/dlls-locker BUY MERCH:http://DLLSLocker.com FOLLOW ON SOCIAL:Twitter: @DLLS_SportsInstagram: @DLLS_Sports Become a DLLS Diehard and get access to premium content, our Discord channel, discounts on merch, and a free shirt!

Become a Diehard today! https://alldlls.com/join/ The Texas Rangers open spring training in eight days, and they will head to Arizona without a closer. They have candidates, though none is proven. Free-agent adds Chris Martin, Alexis Diaz and Jakob Junis could get chances, along with 2025 holdover Robert Garcia.

Spring training is almost here, and for a lot of Texas Rangers fans, that means packing a bag and heading to Arizona. There's something different about seeing baseball in the desert. The smaller ballparks, the access to players, the laid-back atmosphere, and the feeling that the season hasn't gotten complicated yet. It's about sunshine, routine, and getting your baseball fix before the grind of the regular season begins. From first-timers to fans who make the trip every year, spring training has become a tradition, a reset, and a reminder of why following this team is fun in the first place. With the Rangers getting ready to report, Arizona is calling again. Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.
