Alexis Diaz Agrees to One-Year Deal with the Rangers
Free-agent reliever Alexis Diaz has agreed to a one-year deal with the Texas Rangers. Díaz endured a turbulent 2025 season, beginning the year on the injured list with a hamstring issue and quickly losing his closing role with the Cincinnati Reds after surrendering three home runs in a single outing during his mid-April debut. The 29-year-old was subsequently demoted to Triple-A and later traded to the Los Angeles Dodgers, where he lasted only a few weeks before being designated for assignment. He was then claimed off waivers by the Atlanta Braves and finished the season with a career-worst 8.15 ERA and a 14.1% walk rate, while striking out just 20% of batters faced. With the Rangers, Díaz projects as another bullpen arm, and at this point, he holds no fantasy relevance.
