| 6/18/25 | Rangers Named Fit for Braves Star Slugger Who Would Fix Their Offense. The Texas Rangers have had an odd first two and a half months of their 2025 season. A team that had high hopes and expectations for its lineup has seen its offense mired in what can't be deemed a slump anymore since they rank 26th in all of MLB with a team wRC+ of 84. On the other hand, a pitching staff that had a great deal of question marks, especially in terms of health, has both managed to stay reasonably healthy and performed well, posting the second-best ERA in baseball at 3.19. It's kind of unthinkable given the fact that two of the team's biggest offseason moves were to acquire Jake Burger and Joc Pederson, but designated hitter has been a particularly ugly spot for the Rangers.

| 6/17/25 | Rangers Remain in Playoff Mix, but Not for Reason Many Would Have Predicted. In search of some power, first baseman Jake Burger was acquired from the Miami Marlins and designated hitter Joc Pederson was signed in free agency. The Rangers looked to have the deepest lineup in baseball, set to score runs with regularity to help balance out a pitching staff that had a lot of question marks. It wasn't so much a concern about the talent on the pitching staff, but whether they would be able to stay healthy. Source: https://www.si.com/mlb/rangers/news/rangers-remain... |

| 6/13/25 | The Texas Rangers' offense is all of a sudden mashing. How did they rejoin the Slug Club?. So, how exactly have the Rangers rejoined the Slug Club? Well, everybody knows the first rule of Slug Club is to not talk about Slug Club. The Rangers - and those around them - spent so much time talking about slugging before this season began that when it finally started and everybody geared themselves up to try to slug, they did themselves dirty. “I think there's a lot of merit to that,” first baseman Jake Burger said Friday.

First baseman Jake Burger and designated hitter Joc Pederson have not had the kind of impact the team was hoping for as players who would add power to the lineup.
