Jon Chargois: Everything you need to know

The Rangers released Chargois on Tuesday. The veteran reliever had been torched for 14 runs (10 earned) over 4.2 innings with Triple-A Round Rock. Chargois holds a 2.73 ERA over parts of the previous four seasons at the major-league level, so he should be able to find an opportunity with another organization quickly.

The Rangers signed Chargois to a minor-league deal Tuesday, Aram Leighton of JustBaseball.com reports. Chargois pitched for Miami and Seattle in 2024, posting a 3-1 record, 2.23 ERA and 1.02 WHIP across 36 regular-season relief appearances. However, despite the impressive numbers, he was designated for assignment by the Mariners in November and will now look to eventually earn a spot in the Rangers' bullpen.

The Mariners non-tendered Chargois on Friday, Daniel Kramer of MLB.com reports. Chargois was traded by the Marlins to the Mariners in late July. Despite posting a 2.23 ERA and 1.02 WHIP over 36.1 innings between the two teams in 2024, Chargois was designated for assignment by Seattle on Tuesday to make room on the 40-man roster for Austin Shenton. Now in free agency, Chargois should be able to catch on with a team in need of right-handed depth out of the bullpen.
