Arlington, Texas — The Texas Rangers today announced that the club has acquired cash considerations from the Cincinnati Reds in exchange for infielder/outfielder Nick Solak.

Solak was originally acquired by the Rangers from Tampa Bay in a trade on July 13, 2019 involving reliever Peter Fairbanks. The 27-year-old has batted .252 with 21 home runs and 93 RBI over 253 games for Texas since making his Major League debut with the club in August of 2019. In 2022, he posted a .207 average, 3 home runs, 4 RBI in 35 games spanning 3 stints with the Rangers (Opening Day-May 18, July 17-Aug. 4, Sept. 1-end of season), but spent the majority of the campaign at Triple-A Round Rock where he hit .278 with 10 home runs and 45 RBI over 57 contests.

Solak was placed on the Rangers’ 60-day Injured List with a right foot fracture on September 21.  Following the trade, Cincinnati has activated Solak from the 60-day Injured List.
