Free-agent outfielder Jose Bautista isn't well-liked by Texas Rangers players
and fans, but that didn't stop his agent from giving the team a call.
Rumor CentralAccording to the Jeff Wilson of the Fort Worth Star-Telegram,
Baustista's agent, Jay Alou, reached out to the Rangers about the slugger. A
baseball source told Wilson that the conversations didn't go anywhere and
aren't expected to advance.
The Rangers and their fans didn't exactly see Bautista's bat flip during Game
5 of the 2015 AL Division Series in a favorable light. Texas second baseman
Rougned Odor punched Bautista in the face when the the Blue Jays visited the
Rangers this past May. In this year's ALDS, a chorus of boos greeted Bautista
at Globe Life Park.
Texas doesn't have any interest in Bautista because of his history with the
team as well as his poor reputation among fans and players, Wilson writes.
It's unlikely that the Rangers would welcome Bautista into their clubhouse,
although his bat would provide pop in the team's lineup.
The Rangers aren't the first team to reject Bautista for off-field reasons.
Last week, Baltimore Orioles GM Dan Duquette said he told Bautista's agent
that the O's weren't interested in the outfielder because "our fans don't
like him."
ESPN's Jim Bowden projects that Bautista, 36, will sign a three-year, $48
million deal this offseason. Bowden does not list the Rangers as one of the
outfielder's best fits.
