| 7/30/25 | Could the Texas Rangers move Jon Gray? Here's what a potential trade could look like. With less than 24 hours to go until the trade deadline and the Rangers dealing with little payroll flexibility and a thin farm system, they may have to get creative in order to add to the roster. Consider last year's trade of Michael Lorenzen to open up room for Andrew Chafin and Carson Kelly. The Rangers moved salary to add a bit of salary without adding a ton to an already over-the-CBT tax payroll. Gray's return to the roster last week was hailed for the flexibility it gave Bruce Bochy.
