3 years agoThe Texas Rangers are re-signing infielder Charlie Culberson to a minor league deal on Wednesday, according to a source. He'll give the Rangers some infield insurance after he killed left-handed pitching in 2021. Culberson hit .243 with five home runs, 23 runs scored, 23 RBI and seven stolen bases in 91 plate appearances for Texas, but he went 46-for-133 (.346 batting average) with four of his five home runs against southpaws. The 32-year-old will battle for an Opening Day roster spot this spring, but both he and the recently signed Brad Miller should help make up for the loss of shortstop Isiah Kiner-Falefa, who was traded to the Minnesota Twins last week. Andy Ibanez, Miller and Culberson could compete for at-bats all year at the hot corner.--Keith Hernandez - RotoBaller
