ARLINGTON — The draft is done. The trade deadline is passed. The next bit of baseball business: playoff races. For most teams. Not the Rangers. Though wins...
Tuesday when president of baseball operations Jon Daniels was asked about Woodward’s future. Daniels was non-committal, in part because the draft and trade deadline have become all-consuming month-long events, but also because, well, the Rangers haven’t made as much progress as they’d like this year.“That’s an obvious element to the industry and sports,” he told theFriday before a 2-1 loss to Chicago when asked about his future.
The Rangers overachieved in 2019 when they went from 67 wins before his hiring to 78 in his first year. His next season, marked by the pandemic and devastating first-week injuries to Corey Kluber and José Leclerc, was a complete wash. In 2021, under a new baseball operations structure with Daniels and new GM Chris Young, the Rangers committed to a tear down and rebuild. They put together a 100-loss team, which is what they ended up with.
“Why should they come out publicly and say ‘that’s perfectly fine’,” Woodward said about comments regarding his job. “This is where my job comes in. We have to show signs of improvement, especially in the last couple of months.”
