Rangers Analyst Predicts Big Moves To Come

The Winter Meetings will begin on Monday next week.

Though activity in the trade and free agent markets has been slow thus far, we can expect to see a flurry of moves made once the meetings get underway in San Diego.

A team that figures to be active this offseason and make some key moves is the Texas Rangers.

After a 68-94 finish, the Rangers began to address their starting pitching needs, acquiring veteran right-hander Jake Odorizzi from the 101-win Atlanta Braves in exchange for left-hander Kolby Allard.

Like other teams, the Rangers have been mostly quiet so far, but one analyst predicted that activity will ratchet up at the meetings, citing the Rangers typically don’t put their interest in specific players, but rather cast a wider net when searching for stars.
