US EditionRangers don’t tender contract offers to 2023 World Series title contributors García, Heim and Sborz
- On Friday, the Texas Rangers declined to tender 2026 contracts to Adolis Garcia, Jonah Heim, Josh Sborz and Jacob Webb, making all four free agents as announced on the team's X account.

- Once a postseason force, Garcia earned ALCS MVP with eight homers and 22 RBIs, while Heim's offense declined to a.213 average and.602 OPS in 924 plate appearances this year.

- Two years after the 2023 World Series, the club cut ties with key contributors, but Chris Young, Rangers president of baseball operations, said Adolis, Jonah and Josh will always be remembered.
