Rangers Designate Alexis Díaz for Assignment

The Texas Rangers have designated reliever Alexis Díaz for assignment following a difficult spring training performance. Díaz, who was signed by the club on December 16, struggled significantly in Cactus League play, allowing eight earned runs over just 1 2/3 innings across three relief appearances. His final outing occurred last Sunday against the Angels, where he failed to record an out while surrendering five earned runs and three walks.
