The Rangers have re-signed 25-year old righty swinging 2B/3B/OF Yangervis Solarte to a minor league deal. Solarte played in 130 games in AAA-ball last year for the Rangers last year and he was 149 of 518 (.288 avg, .745 OPS) with 69 runs scored, 11 homers, 54 RBIs and 3 stolen bases. He has now played in 539 games in his first seven years in the minors and he is 580 of 2,013 (.288 avg, .735 OPS) with 266 runs scored, 29 homers, 237 RBIs and 30 stolen bases. Solarte will get a shot to win a bench job for the Rangers next spring.
