Rangers Move to Strengthen Rotation | Austin News

The Texas Rangers just pulled off a savvy move, signing veteran lefty Marco Gonzales to a minor league deal right before their game against the White Sox — a move that could reshape their pitching rotation. To make room, they promoted Austin Wynns to backup catcher and placed Kyle Higashioka, Jose Corniell, and Jalen Beeks on the injured list. Gonzales, who last pitched in the majors this year with the Pirates, brings solid experience despite recent struggles in Triple-A. The move comes as Cal Quantrill steps in for injured Jack Leiter — and Quantrill’s recent slump makes Gonzales a smart, if risky, addition. With injuries piling up and the season winding down, the Rangers are making strategic adjustments to stay competitive.
