ARLINGTON, Texas (AP) — The Texas Rangers have hired former Miami Marlins manager Skip Schumaker as a senior adviser for baseball operations. Texas announced Schumaker’s addition to its front office on Wednesday. The team also signed right-handed pitcher Luis Curvelo to a one-year contract calling for the $760,000 minimum while in the major leagues and $90,000 while in the minors. Schumaker was the 2023 NL Manager of the Year after Miami went 84-78 and made the fourth postseason appearance in club history. The Marlins slipped to 62-100 last season after a GM change and with a roster decimated by trades and injuries.
