Texas Rangers manager Skip Schumaker joins the show as spring training games are about to begin, and he covers everything happening inside camp.

Schumaker talks about Evan Carter’s physical growth and mindset entering camp, why Brandon Nimmo could be a major influence in the Rangers outfield, and how the team plans to be more aggressive on the bases in 2026. He explains why players will have the green light, what second tier speed really means, and why he does not want guys playing tight.

There’s also insight on the young pitchers attacking hitters, why comparing prospects to Craig Kimbrel is tricky, what he looks for once games start, and how the new coaching staff has already made an impact inside the clubhouse.

The Texas Rangers kick off Cactus League play Friday after a week of pitchers and catchers workouts and plenty of activity for position players. Manager Skip Schumaker joins to talk about the state of the team heading into the first spring games, including a handful of young arms who have flashed and could be closer to the big leagues than expected as camp continues.

Schumaker also discussed adapting to new elements this spring, including how he plans to use the ABS system during games and how live batting practice has been a highlight of early workouts.

Off the field, the baseball world was rocked this week when MLB Players Association executive director Tony Clark resigned amid union leadership turmoil and an ongoing investigation, leaving negotiations and the union’s future direction unclear.

The story that won’t go away was hopefully put to bed Monday morning when Texas Rangers shortstop Corey Seager met with the media and discussed his relationship with Marcus Semien after an offseason filled with innuendo. Seager didn’t dive into details, but he said that he and Semien had mutual respect for each other and were professionals on the field. Semien has been traded, and new manager Skip Schumaker hopes to create a new clubhouse culture. More competitors than complainers, more inflators than deflators. Brandon Nimmo figures to play a role in that, and on the field he figures to be the Rangers’ leadoff hitter.

Texas Rangers pitching coach Jordan Tiegs joins the show to break down everything happening inside Rangers camp.

Tiegs dives into Jacob deGrom’s mindset, Nathan Eovaldi’s relentless pursuit of perfection, and what makes elite veterans different. He also discusses Alexis Díaz’s mechanical tweaks, Robert Garcia’s development in high-leverage spots, and the early competition for bullpen roles.

Plus, insight on Kumar Rocker’s offseason changes, Jake’s next step forward, Kyle’s veteran presence, and where top prospect Brock Porter stands heading into the season.

Cody Freeman is back in Surprise and he sounds like a player ready to take the next step.

After finishing last season strong, Freeman heads into spring training competing for more than just a bench role. He talks about the opportunity at second base, staying uncomfortable in competition, and why nothing is ever given in this game. There’s also insight into his offseason defensive focus, growing comfort in the outfield, and how working alongside guys like Josh Jung has shaped his path.

Freeman opens up about the new coaching staff, the impact Brett Boone had on him mentally, and what it’s been like working with Justin Viele this spring. Plus, some fun on the “Little Rascals” nickname, clubhouse chemistry, coffee habits, and life in camp.

Texas Rangers top prospect Sebastian Walcott will undergo elbow surgery after a UCL tear was diagnosed during spring training, and he is expected to miss most or possibly all of the 2026 season. President of baseball operations Chris Young confirmed the diagnosis and surgical plan, with the Rangers monitoring whether the procedure will be an internal brace repair or a full Tommy John reconstruction.

Despite the setback, Walcott — ranked among the game’s best prospects and one of baseball’s top young hitters — expressed optimism about his long-term future and possibility of returning to play late in the season if the recovery goes well.
