Rangers to Promote Alejandro Osuna to Majors

The Texas Rangers are set to promote 22-year-old outfield prospect Alejandro Osuna to the majors following Joc Pederson's fractured right hand, which created an opening on the roster. Osuna, ranked as the Rangers' No. 7 prospect by MLB Pipeline, was named 2024 Minor League Player of the Year after a breakout campaign and an impressive spring training. He began 2025 at Double-A Frisco, quickly moved up to Triple-A Round Rock, and has posted a .279/.386/.416 line with strong defense at both levels. Signed out of Mexico in 2020 and noted for his 'Major League bloodlines,' Osuna is praised for his work ethic and talent. The Rangers, currently ranking 27th in runs scored, hope Osuna will bolster their struggling offense. To clear space on the 40-man roster, the team will designate a player for assignment or place someone on the 60-day injured list.
