Osleivis Basabe was part of the trade that brought Nathaniel Lowe to the Rangers from the Rays ahead of the 2021 season. Since then, Basabe has accumulated only 0.4 wins above replacement (WAR) in 31 games with the Rays in 2023, while Lowe has totaled 11.5 WAR, highlighting the Rangers' advantageous acquisition in the deal.

Infielder Osleivis Basabe of the Rays left Tuesday's game after hitting his head sliding into third but was cleared by the medical staff and expected to resume baseball activities soon.
