I had Sato as top target for the Rangers but like the tweet says to make this possible one of the big 3 has to go and i think either DeGrom or Evo gets shipped out.
The Rangers have done extensive background work on Teruaki Sato, per @TheAthleticMLB
To create the payroll flexibility for Sato, Texas would almost certainly need to move one of its high-salaried players.
Corey Seager could be hesitant to waive his no-trade clause to be traded to a big market like New York, Boston, or Philadelphia due to his desire to stay out of the spotlight, per @Evan_P_Grant.
Bleacher Report predicts the Texas Rangers will sign Jazz Chisholm Jr. to a 3-year, $70M contract 💰
Jazz in 2026:
.231/.312/.399 | .711 OPS
19 HR | 41 SB | 3.5 fWAR

@JulioCanoo@RangerRick711 Elly is a amazing player but Rangers won’t give elly money to keep him here so i rather try with Walcott who has way more years of control
