Nathan Eovaldi has rejoined the Texas Rangers after signing a three-year, $75 million contract, which includes a $12 million signing bonus and an $18 million salary for 2025. This move necessitated a roster adjustment, leading the Rangers to designate Roansy Contreras for assignment.

Contreras, who had a 4.35 ERA in 2024, may be assigned to Triple-A Round Rock if he clears waivers. Additionally, the Rangers recently traded for Jake Burger, adding to the team's power-hitting options.
