Waived by Rangers The Rangers placed Crim on release waivers Wednesday, Kennedi Landry of MLB.com reports.

Impact Crim was claimed off waivers from Colorado in May, but the Rangers will now place him on release waivers to allow him to pursue an opportunity overseas. The 29-year-old has spent the entire season at Triple-A up to this point, slashing .265/.341/.453 across 252 plate appearances.

Rangers Claiming Blaine Crim off Waivers Could Influence Trade Deadline Blaime Crim is back. The Texas Rangers claimed him off waivers from the Colorado Rockies on Saturday. But what does that mean to the future?

MAY 24 • SI.COM

Claimed by Rangers The Rangers claimed Crim off waivers from the Rockies on Saturday and optioned him to Triple-A Round Rock.

Impact Crim was DFA'd by the Rockies on Wednesday, but he'll reclaim a 40-man roster spot while returning to the organization that drafted him back in 2019. The 28-year-old has spent the entire season in Triple-A, slashing .265/.339/.449 across 165 plate appearances. Carter Baumler (ribs) was transferred to the 60-day IL in a corresponding move.

MAY 23 • ROTOWIRE

Scrubbed from 40-man roster The Rockies designated Crim for assignment Wednesday.

Impact The transaction frees up a 40-man roster spot for the addition of Keegan Thompson. Crim has slashed .265/.339/.449 with seven home runs in 36 games this season with Triple-A Albuquerque. There's a good chance the 28-year-old passes through waivers, and if that happens, he could stick around in the organization.

MAY 20 • ROTOWIRE

Activated, optioned to Triple-A The Rockies reinstated Crim (oblique) from the injured list Saturday and optioned him to Triple-A Albuquerque.

Impact Crim missed most of the Cactus League schedule due to a strained left oblique. He received the green light to begin playing in rehab games at Albuquerque on March 31, and he'll officially stay put in the minors now that he's been deemed fully healthy.

APRIL 4 • ROTOWIRE

Cleared for rehab games Crim (oblique) went 1-for-3 with a single in his first rehab game with Triple-A Albuquerque on Tuesday.

Impact Crim missed most of Cactus League action with a strained oblique but has been deemed ready to play in games again. It's essentially the start of spring training for Crim, so his rehab assignment could be a lengthy one and he's not a given to rejoin the major-league roster at the end of the assignment.

APRIL 1 • ROTOWIRE

Moved to injured list The Rockies placed Crim (oblique) on the 10-day injured list Wednesday.

Impact Crim sustained an oblique strain in February and isn't ready for the start of the regular season. The 28-year-old was cleared for baseball activities last week and is likely at least a week or two away from a rehab assignment.

MARCH 25 • ROTOWIRE

Cleared for baseball activities Crim (oblique) has been cleared for baseball activities Tuesday, Patrick Lyons of JustBaseball.com reports.

Impact Crim has missed most of spring training with a strained oblique. The 29-year-old made his MLB debut last season, appearing in 20 games with the Rangers and Rockies, and produced a .200/.270/.462 slash line with five home runs, 12 RBI, 10 runs scored and a 6:28 BB:K across 74 trips to the plate. Crim will likely open the season at Triple-A Albuquerque.

MARCH 17 • ROTOWIRE

Managing oblique strain Crim suffered an oblique strain during Monday's spring game, Thomas Harding of MLB.com reports.

Impact Crim received his first taste of the big leagues in 2025 and had a .732 OPS in 20 games between the Rockies and Rangers. The severity of the strain has yet to be disclosed, but his availability for the start of the regular season is now in question.

Impact The rookie cleared the fence twice Thursday with each drive carrying more than 400 feet, thanks to Coors Field's elevation.
