More distressing offseason news for the Rangers.


Joc Pederson and his .181 AVG and .614 OPS will return to the Rangers in 2026.

After losing Bruce Bochy, Mike Maddux, Tony Beasley, Brett Boone, and Bobby Wilson already this offseason, the Rangers get more distressing news.

Joc Pederson has decided to exercise his option. He will be staying with the Rangers in 2026 for $18.5 million. At nine home runs in 2025, that’s slightly over two million dollars per homer, and $711,000 per RBI. He had only twenty-six of those.
