Texas Rangers consider trade for Minnesota Twins catcher Ryan Jeffers

As the MLB Trade Deadline approaches on August 3, the Texas Rangers are looking to enhance their roster by targeting Minnesota Twins catcher Ryan Jeffers. Currently at 50-49, the Rangers hold a narrow lead in the American League West. Jeffers has rebounded since a hamate bone fracture, batting.288 with a.941 OPS this season. The Rangers' catching situation has been challenging, as Kyle Higashioka and Danny Jansen struggle offensively. The Tampa Bay Rays and New York Yankees are also interested in Jeffers, increasing competition for his acquisition.
