Texas Rangers Trio Rivals Los Angeles Dodgers' Group led by Shohei Ohtani

Corey Seager, Marcus Semien and Adolis García give the Texas Rangers offensive punch that's among the best in baseball going into 2024.

The Texas Rangers have one of the top offensive trios in baseball, 

MLB.com ranked the top 10 threesomes in the wake of Shohei Ohtani’s signing with the Los Angeles Dodgers. The site ranked the Dodgers as having the game’s No. 1 trio with Ohtani, Mookie Betts and Freddie Freeman, all of which have been an MVP at some point in their careers.

The Rangers came in at No. 5 with Corey Seager, Marcus Semien and Adolis García.

All three were key members of the Rangers’ first World Series championship team. The trio also helped the Rangers win the inaugural Silver Slugger Award as Offensive Team of the Year in the American League. Texas led the AL in all four slash categories (.263/.337/.452/.790) for the first time in franchise history, with a league-leading league 881 runs and 233 home runs (tied).

Seager slashed .327/.390/.623/1.013 with 33 home runs, 42 doubles and 96 RBI, ranking among AL leaders in doubles (first), batting average (second), OPS (second), slugging percentage (second), extra-base hits (tied for second, 75), home runs (tied for fifth) and RBI (tied for 10th).

The two-time World Series MVP batted .318 with six home runs and 12 RBI in 17 postseason games. His MVP award made him the fourth player in MLB history to win multiple World Series MVP awards.

Seager was an MVP and Gold Glove finalist, selected an AL All-Star and won the Silver Slugger.

Semien slashed .276/.348/.478/.826 with 29 home runs, 29 doubles, 100 RBI and 122 runs, leading the AL in hits (185), runs, plate appearances (club-record 753) and at-bats (670). He started all 179 games for Texas in the regular season and postseason, totaling 835 plate appearances, setting MLB records in both categories for a single season.

Semien was an AL All-Star, an MVP finalist, a Gold Glove finalist and a Silver Slugger.

Garcia was the American League Championship Series MVP after helping the Rangers win that series in seven games. At one point he hit home runs in five straight postseason games, including the game-winner in Game 1 of the World Series against Arizona.

García earned an AL All-Star berth and won his first Gold Glove with a team-leading 11 outfield assists. He slashed .245/.328/.508/.836 with 39 home runs and 107 RBI, the latter of the two being career highs.
