Rangers Seek Resurgence with Tatis Jr. Acquisition

As of November 13th, 2025, the Texas Rangers are at a crossroads after a mediocre 81-81 season in 2025. The 2023 World Series champions are no longer the powerhouse they once were, but they may have a chance to turn things around.

According to reports, the Rangers are considering a move that could give them the energizing shot they need to return to contention: acquiring three-time All-Star and former MVP candidate Fernando Tatis Jr. Tatis, who is under contract until 2034, would join a talented outfield trio with Wyatt Langford and Evan Carter, potentially forming one of the most naturally gifted outfield groups in Major League Baseball.

The Rangers have several holes to plug, but they are typically a club with plenty of spending power. Bringing in Tatis could be the key to their resurgence, as the 25-year-old superstar is coming off a 2025 season in which he slashed .268/.368/.446/.814 with 27 doubles, 25 home runs, 71 RBIs, and 32 stolen bases in 155 games.

If the Rangers can make this move work, they'll have a strong foundation to build a true contender around Tatis for the next decade. However, they'll need to figure out how to best utilize their current roster, including deciding whether to keep Adolis García at DH or potentially trade him to create space for Tatis.
