This is a list of pitchers the Rangers could pursue for the upcoming season. And the rumor is that they will pursue starting pitching. It should come as no surprise (or maybe it would be) that the Rangers are going to make a strong case of bringing in CC Sabathia. I am not sure why Roger Clemens is still considered a free agent. As far as I can tell, he really, really, really is retired. The Rangers have also hinted at bringing in a second starting pitcher so that Millwood could drop down to a #3 starter, although I haven't heard who that pitcher would be.
The Free Agent list can be found here.
