MAJOR HIRING: The Texas Rangers announced Bruce Bochy as the club's new manager on Friday, hiring the three-time World Series winner who last managed in 2019.
“In his 25 years with San Diego and San Francisco, Bruce was one of the most successful and respected managers in Major League Baseball," said Rangers general manager Chris Young, who played for Bochy with the Padres.
Texas entered the 2022 season with higher expectations, having committed $500 million over the winter on shortstop Corey Seager and second baseman Marcus Semien. The Rangers finished 68-94, fourth place in the American League West. “If I was going to return to managing, it had to be the right situation," Bochy said. "I strongly believe that to be the case with the Rangers, and I can’t wait to get started.”
Bochy, 67, signed a three-year deal through the 2025 season. It will be his first American League job, having spent a quarter-century in the NL.
