Skip Schumaker has officially been tasked with leading the Texas Rangers.
Schumaker was the 2023 National League manager of the year with the Miami Marlins, leading the team to an 84-78 record and rare playoff appearance. He and the Marlins parted ways, however, after they went 62-100 in 2024.
The 45-year-old has spent the last year as a special assistant with the Rangers under future Hall of Famer Bruce Bochy.
Bochy and the Rangers agreed he would not continue on as manager after three seasons that included the club’s first World Series title in 2023.
Schumaker inherits a team that went 81-81 in 2025.
