Texas Rangers Finalize 2025 Opening Day Roster Against Red Sox

The Texas Rangers have finalized their opening day roster for the 2025 season, set to face the Boston Red Sox. Notable changes include the assignment of pitcher Patrick Corbin to Triple-A Round Rock and the promotion of veteran Kevin Pillar, who will enhance the outfield competition. The starting rotation will feature Nathan Eovaldi as the opening day starter, supported by Jack Leiter, Tyler Mahle, Jacob deGrom, and Kumar Rocker, marking their first opening day with the team. With the omission of top prospect Evan Carter from the roster, the Rangers are betting on offseason acquisitions like Jake Burger and Joc Pederson to boost their offense. The team aims to rebound from a disappointing 2024 season, where injuries hindered their performance, and is optimistic about a solid run in the upcoming season under the leadership of stars Corey Seager and Marcus Semien. The season opens at 3:05 p.m. Thursday at Globe Life Field, with expectations high for the Rangers to return to playoff contention.
