The Texas Rangers added another arm to the pitching staff on Monday.<\/p>\n
A person familiar with the move confirmed to The Dallas Morning News the Rangers have signed relief pitcher Anthony Veneziano to a minor league contract with an invite to major league camp.<\/p>\n
The 28-year-old left-hander has 40 career appearances in the past three seasons with Kansas City, Miami, and St. Louis.<\/p>\n
In 26 games last season (one start), Veneziano compiled a 4.68 ERA in 25 innings pitched.<\/p>\n
Veneziano’s experience in the major leagues is limited, but he has shown promise in his appearances. His ERA of 4.68 last season indicates that he has the potential to be a valuable addition to the Rangers’ pitching staff.<\/p>\n
With his ability to pitch in relief and as a starter, Veneziano provides flexibility to the team, which can be beneficial in various game situations.<\/p>\n
Veneziano briefly overlapped with new Rangers manager Skip Schumaker in Miami after being claimed off waivers from Kansas City near the end of the 2024 season.<\/p>\n
This prior connection could help Veneziano adjust to the team’s dynamics and coaching style, potentially leading to a smoother transition and better performance.<\/p>\n
