Workman was released by the Rangers on Tuesday. Workman joined the team as a non-roster invitee but failed to win a roster spot. As a 32-year-old with a 5.66 ERA over the last two seasons, he's unlikely to find any major-league offers on the open market.

The Rangers reassigned Workman to minor-league camp Monday. Though he's only three years removed from saving 16 games and posting a 1.88 ERA in 71.2 innings with the Red Sox, Workman's career appears to be headed on a downward spiral. Now with his fourth organization since that career-best 2019 season, Workman was forced to settle for a minor-league deal over the winter and didn't distinguish himself in spring training to make a case for a spot in the Rangers' Opening Day bullpen. He'll likely begin the season in the bullpen at Triple-A Round Rock.

Workman signed a minor-league contract with the Rangers on Friday, Robert Murray of FanSided.com reports. Workman elected free agency in early August after spending time with the Cubs and Red Sox in 2021. He made 29 relief appearances between the two clubs and posted a 5.46 ERA and 2.04 WHIP in 28 innings. The 33-year-old will serve as a non-roster invitee this spring, and he'll likely be in the mix for a low-leverage role in the Rangers' bullpen.

The Red Sox released Workman on Sunday after he elected free agency. Rather than accepting an assignment to Triple-A Worcester after he went unclaimed off waivers, Workman will head to the open market and hope to land a minor-league deal with another organization. Over 29 relief appearances between the Red Sox and Cubs this season, Workman has posted a 5.46 ERA and 2.04 WHIP across 28 innings.

Workman was designated for assignment Thursday, Alex Speier of The Boston Globe reports. Workman has pitched for both the Cubs and Red Sox this season but has struggled to a 5.46 ERA across 28 innings. The move created roster space for the addition of Kyle Schwarber (hamstring), who was acquired by the Red Sox prior to the trade deadline.
