The Texas Rangers<\/a> have re-signed a right-handed reliever after previously granting him his release earlier this week.\u00a0<\/p>\n

According to a report from Evan Grant of The Dallas Morning News<\/a>, the AL West club has brought back Josh Sborz, who was a member of the 2023 World Series title squad.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Sborz has not made an appearance in the Majors since 2024, as injuries have limited him to minimal innings at Triple-A Round Rock and Double-A Frisco.\u00a0<\/p>\n

“Shoulder problems have mostly hampered him since that triumphant moment,” Anthony Franco of MLB Trade Rumors<\/a> wrote about Sborz’s championship with the Rangers.<\/p>\n

“Sborz was limited to 16 2\/3 innings in 2024. He missed all of last season while working back from a debridement procedure after a setback during a brief minor league rehab attempt,” Franco added. “Texas opted not to tender him an arbitration contract but was able to retain him via a minor league deal.”\u00a0<\/p>\n

Sborz turned 32 this past December and made his Major League debut with the Los Angeles Dodgers<\/a> in 2019.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Since that time, he has thrown 163.1 innings and averages 10.6 strikeouts per nine innings with a 4.96 ERA. Perhaps he can impress enough in the minors and work his way back to the mound at Globe Life Field after a two-year hiatus.\u00a0<\/p>\n
