Why did four free agents want to join Texas Rangers after a 102-loss season?

The theme from Corey Seager, Marcus Semien, Jon Gray and Kole Calhoun is that the Rangers were transparent when making their pitch.

Marcus Semien said he was wowed by what Texas Rangers brass, including Jon Daniels, said during the free-agency process (The Associated Press/Richard W. Rodriguez).

The newest Texas Rangers were all introduced Wednesday at Globe Life Field.

The refrain from president of baseball operations Jon Daniels, general manager Chris Young and manager Chris Woodward became familiar.

So did what the players said, though they didn’t have the benefit of hearing one of their new teammates say it before them or from the seat next to them.

Each had his own press conference.

This wasn’t group think, in other words.
