GAME LOG
Sebastian Walcott - Out for 2026 after elbow surgery Walcott will undergo UCL surgery on his right elbow and will miss most, if not all, of the 2026 season, Evan Grant of The Dallas Morning News reports.
Impact It's unclear whether he'll have a full Tommy John repair or something less invasive, but in either case, Walcott's 2026 campaign is likely over before it begins. Slated to turn 20 in March, Walcott is one of the game's elite prospects and could have push for a major-league debut this season. He slashed .255/.355/.386 with 13 home runs and 32 stolen bases over 124 games in 2025 at Double-A Frisco as a 19-year-old.

Nathan Eovaldi - Reports to camp in full health Eovaldi (hernia) reported to camp healthy and threw his first bullpen session Tuesday, Kennedi Landry of MLB.com reports.
Impact Eovaldi underwent surgery during the offseason to address a sports hernia issue. The right-hander said he's been dealing with the hernia since 2024, but that it never affected his pitching. Eovaldi was shutdown last season in August with an impressive 1.73 ERA over 22 starts, the fourth consecutive season with fewer than 30 starts. He turns 36 this spring, and manager Skip Schumaker is planning a slow build-up for Eovaldi, similar to how the club handled Jacob deGrom in 2025.

Ben Abeldt - Hoping to make pro debut in April Abeldt (elbow) said Wednesday that he resumed throwing off a mound three weeks ago and is hopeful to make his season debut at some point in late April, Jeff Wilson of AllDLLS.com r...
Impact A fifth-round pick out of TCU in the 2025 First-Year Player Draft, Abeldt is still waiting to make his professional debut after he was sidelined last summer while on the mend from internal brace surgery on his left elbow. The 22-year-old has made good progress in his rehab program in the ensuing months and looks on pace to start facing hitters at some point before the end of spring training. He'll likely report to Single-A Hickory once he's cleared for game action.
FEBRUARY 11 • ROTOWIRE
MacKenzie Gore - Opens camp with bullpen session Gore (ankle) was seen throwing a bullpen session Wednesday, Kennedi Landry of MLB.com reports.
Impact Gore wasn't expected to be entering spring training with any restrictions after a minor right ankle impingement kept him out of action for the final week of the 2025 season, but his ability to throw a side session on the second day of camp confirms he's healthy. Acquired in January in a deal that sent five prospects to Washington, Gore is likely penciled in to begin his first season with Texas as the Rangers' No. 3 starter behind Jacob deGrom and Nathan Eovaldi (core).
FEBRUARY 11 • ROTOWIRE
Emiliano Teodo - Behind schedule with back issue Teodo is 2-to-3 weeks behind schedule after dealing with a back injury last season, Jeff Wilson of AllDLLS.com reports.
Impact Teodo missed more than two months of action during the middle of last year's minor league season because of a back problem. He finished the year healthy, but the Rangers don't want to push him early on in camp. Teodo made a full-time move to a relief role in 2025, posting a 9.00 ERA and 23:17 K:BB over 18 innings during his time with Triple-A Round Rock.

Marc Church - Nursing lat strain Church is behind schedule this spring due to a right lat strain, Kennedi Landry of MLB.com reports.
Impact Church dealt with lat issues for a large portion of the 2025 campaign, as well. The expectation is that he will be ready to throw off a mound again sometime in March, but Church's status for Opening Day is uncertain. Church has some of the best upside out of anyone in the Rangers' shaky bullpen, but he'll have to get healthy first.

Alexis Díaz - Has chance at closer job Rangers manager Skip Schumaker said Wednesday that Diaz has a chance to see saves for the club this season, but the manager wants to see Diaz work in spring training games first, J...
Impact Schumaker listed Robert Garcia and Chris Martin as the initial favorites to close games, but he left the door open for Diaz. The 29-year-old Diaz notched 75 saves for the Reds from 2022-2024, but he fell apart in 2025, posting an 8.15 ERA and 1.53 WHIP over 17.2 innings between three different teams. It's a good opportunity for Diaz to re-establish himself on a team lacking bullpen clarity, but he has a lot to prove before fantasy managers can trust him again.
FEBRUARY 11 • ROTOWIRE
Chris Martin - Could see save opportunities Rangers manager Skip Schumaker said Wednesday that Robert Garcia and Martin are the favorites to see save chances for the team this season, Jeff Wilson of AllDLLS.com reports.
Impact After mulling retirement, Martin re-signed with the Rangers in December on a one-year, $4 million contract. He'll turn 40 in June but has remained highly effective, having logged a 2.98 ERA and 43:8 K:BB over 42.1 frames in 2025 while notching two saves. Martin finished last season on the injured list with an undisclosed injury but enters spring training without limitations.
FEBRUARY 11 • ROTOWIRE
Robert Garcia - In mix to close with Martin Rangers manager Skip Schumaker said Wednesday that Garcia and Chris Martin are the favorites to see the bulk of the team's save chances this season, Jeff Wilson of AllDLLS.com repo...
Impact Schumaker also noted that Alexis Diaz could work his way into the mix, but he wants to see how Diaz looks in spring training games first. Garcia finished in a three-way tie for the team lead with nine saves last season, and the two others (Shawn Armstrong and Luke Jackson) are no longer with the club. The left-hander collected a 2.95 ERA and 68:22 K:BB across 64 frames in 2025 in his first season with Texas.

Jordan Montgomery - Inks one-year deal with Rangers The Rangers signed Montgomery (elbow) to a one-year, $1.25 million contract Wednesday, Evan Grant of The Dallas Morning News reports.
Impact Montgomery had a hybrid UCL reconstruction last March but hopes to be major-league ready around the All-Star break. The 33-year-old had a disastrous 2024 season with the Diamondbacks after signing late in spring training, posting a 6.23 ERA over 25 appearances. He was terrific in 2023, however, which included starring for the Rangers down the stretch of the regular season and their run to the World Series. The two sides are hoping to recapture some of that magic in 2026.

Cody Bradford - Working in changeups Bradford (elbow) will incorporate 8-to-10 changeups into his bullpen session Tuesday, which will be his first session that's not all fastballs, Jeff Wilson of AllDLLS.com reports.
Impact It's the left-hander's seventh bullpen session as he continues to ramp up his throwing program after undergoing an internal brace procedure in June. Bradford is targeting May for his season debut, and he could begin a rehab assignment sometime around Opening Day in late March.
