Rangers Sign David Buchanan To Minor-League Deal
2 days agoThe Texas Rangers signed free-agent right-hander David Buchanan to a minor-league deal on Tuesday that includes an invitation to big-league spring training. Buchanan made his major-league debut with the Philadelphia Phillies back in 2014 and made 20 starts. He then made 15 starts the following year but struggled to an ERA just under 7.00 with 44 strikeouts and 29 walks in 74 2/3 innings pitched. The 35-year-old former seventh-round pick by the Phillies in 2010 out of Georgia State University resurfaced in the majors in 2024 with the Cincinnati Reds but only pitched 3 1/3 innings out of the bullpen. Buchanan pitched in both Japan and Korea during his long stint out of the big leagues. He'll now try to return to the big leagues in the American League in 2025 while providing relief depth for the Rangers. Buchanan will not be on the fantasy radar.
