The Texas Rangers acquired young power-hitting first baseman Jake Burger in a trade with the Miami Marlins, giving the club a potential everyday DH option.
The Texas Rangers have five players selected to the Arizona Fall League Fall Stars Game on Saturday, including hard-throwing relief pitcher Marc Church.
