Rangers Do Have Interest In Jose Dariel Abreu, But Unknown If They Will Pursue

Any word on the Rangers' interest in first baseman Jose Dariel Abreu? -- Paul S., Arlington, Texas

The Rangers have scouted Abreu, 26, extensively, and he put up some impressive numbers in Cuba. They have definite interest in him, although that doesn't necessarily mean that they will push Mitch Moreland out of the picture. Even with Moreland, the Rangers still need to acquire at least two offensive players this winter at designated hitter and in the outfield. While there are no guarantees with Abreu, the success of Yasiel Puig and Yoenis Cespedes has re-ignited interest in Cuban players.
