José Ureña is set to enter free agency after contributing nearly 60% of his innings from the bullpen this past season. He was one of the key relief pitchers for the Rangers, alongside Kirby Yates and David Robertson, who also became free agents. With the Rangers needing to rebuild their bullpen, Ureña's departure would leave a significant gap, as he was among the pitchers who threw the most relief innings for the team. President of Baseball Operations Chris Young emphasized the importance of addressing the bullpen during the offseason.
