Get that logic out of here.

Whoa...

Arlington, Texas The Texas Rangers today announced that Neil Leibman, who has served in many roles spanning 16 years with the organization, will step down from his position with the club to focus on other business opportunities, effective immediately.

"Neil has been a constant with the Rangers since our group purchased the club in 2010," said Rangers Majority Owner Ray Davis. "He was part of some of the most significant moments in franchise history and played a large role in our business operations. His contributions to the Texas Rangers Baseball Foundation will be part of his legacy, as will the building of Globe Life Field and development efforts in the Arlington Entertainment District. Neil has been a friend and business partner for many years, and we wish him the best in his future endeavors."

Leibman's responsibilities with the Rangers, which include oversight of both REV Entertainment and Rangers Sports Network, will be handled by current staff. Any additional changes in Rangers management structure will be addressed at a later date.

"It has been an honor and privilege to serve for many years with this ownership group and front office," said Leibman. "I am grateful for the opportunity and will cherish everything we have accomplished together. The Rangers have made tremendous progress on numerous fronts during this ownership tenure, and I am proud to have been a part of the most successful period in franchise history. With several other business opportunities on the horizon, I look forward to devoting more time to those efforts."

Leibman has served as Chairman, Rangers Sports Media & Entertainment Company, which was announced in January 2025 as the parent company for Rangers Sports Network as well as REV Entertainment. He led efforts to build Rangers Sports Network (RSN), a media venture created to produce and distribute the team's games and other content. He previously served as Rangers COO and President of Business Operations and worked on development opportunities while serving as the Chairman of the Texas Rangers Baseball Foundation.

Leibman was an original member of the ownership group that purchased the Rangers in August 2010 and was appointed Chairman of the Rangers Ownership Committee in the spring of 2013. He worked closely with Davis on the agreement to build Globe Life Field and with Loews Hotels & Co. on the Texas Live!, Live! by Loews-Arlington, TX, Loews Arlington Hotel and Convention Center, and One Rangers Way projects.

taking the fall for TV issues?

That would be my thoughts. It has been a disaster

to build Globe Life Field

Another disaster.

Somebody should have been fired for GLF. Even after a WS Championship, that place is sterile. AC is great, for sure. But, jeez... the aesthetics and warm of that place is just like... *drumroll* a Home Depot.

He owns part of BZZR.

O'Hoppe has a .798 OPS in 8 games for Round Rock. Was hoping he would be on the plane to the west coast for the road trip.

Not sure what the hold up is. He's an objectively better player than Wynns and he's younger and figures more in to the future of the team.

Throwing my name in the hat. We're gonna turn this thing around and be a perennial contender

Wynns has compromising photos of Skip probably.

Ohoppe said the Rangers had a specific plan for him (something the Angels did not). I'm sure he's working on whatever adjustments they want and then he'll be up.

Is this the greatest throw in baseball history?

As much as I would like to see him, I think he's more valuable for the future to get things right.

Yes. It also happened last year.

Dangit I'm such a boomer. Not sure why it was all over the timeline the past couple days.

We get O'Hoppe for 2 more years after 2026. He was a long-term project. I think the Rangers believe they can return him to where he was projecting.

@23 he went .236, 14 HR, .796 OPS, 112 OPS+ in 51G
@26 he has .258, 0 HR, .798 OPS in 8G @ RR

Better than his 62 OPS+ in Anaheim, but it may still be early to bring him up.

And they may not want to return him against LAAA.

CY indicated they saw some things they could fix. He implied that was one reason they got him, although there isn't anything to say how he got included and it was after the fact.

But, yes, CY indicated that publicly, as well.

To me, If you get him back to what he was projected then it is more than worth the trade. What does that tell you about the Angels that there was not a plan for him.

Also, Creed was pretty dope.

Everyone except for maybe astros / diamondback fans could find something to enjoy from our playoff run

House money for life. Still feel that way. Same way I felt for the Mavs in 2011, but 10x if possible.

You just kept waiting for it to bounce, and it never did.

I want 1 more just not as badly as the first. I don't like that the Astros have 1.5 and we have 1.

Grrr... How soon can Leiter come off the 60? He still needs to ramp up and all, but we just put him on the 60 retroactive to the injury date.

We could win the next 10 World Series and you'd still find a way to feel inadequate to your daddy Astros.

It's such a strange decision to hit Foscue 6th. Almost no chance he sees a third AB.

If we hold onto him. Angels were likely to non-tender him. If we don't like what we see to finish the year might do the same.

Lookin like it could be one of those nights from the offense…

1st Inning HR: **check**

On a brighter note at least we get Sandler tonight

Hey offense. Get your ****ing head out of your ass

What pitcher did they say went in the DL today?

Eovaldi.

Elbow inflammation

Love that guy. He will be a legend.

Wonder if that is part of the guy that parted today.

Done with Raymond.

Gore gonna be lucky to get through 5 at this rate.
