Texas Rangers Roster
The Rangers announced yesterday that they will extend non-roster invites to right-handed, first baseman/outfielder Conor Jackson and left-handed reliever Joe Beimel.
Jackson will add some depth behind Mitch Moreland who is recovering from wrist surgery, and could be behind at the beginning of Spring Training. Additionally, Jackson could fill the elusive right-handed bat off of the bench role for which the Rangers have been void since the departure of Marlon Byrd. Jackson played in 53 games at first base, 31 in right, 23 in left, and 7 games at third base in 2011 with Oakland.
Beimel joins Michael Kirkman as the only left-handed relief candidates set to join the team in Surprise. He is less likely than Jackson to make the Major League team, and could primarily serve as insurance should the Rangers not re-sign Mike Gonzalez.
