"It's a late birthday gift for Crismatt, who turned 31 on Christmas Day. This is Crismatt's second stint in the Texas organization, as he spent a month of the 2024 season pitching with Triple-A Round Rock before being released from that minor league deal without any time in the bigs. The brief run in Round Rock was one of many stops Crismatt has made on a variety of minors contracts over the last three seasons, as he is out of minor league options."
"After amassing 20 MLB innings with the Padres, Diamondbacks, and Dodgers over the 2023-24 seasons, the righty got a bit more of a run in the Show by tossing 34 innings for the D'Backs in 2025. Brought up to the active roster in mid-August, Crismatt posted a 3.71 ERA, 5.9% walk rate, and 16.3% strikeout rate during this return to the D'Backs."
Nabil Crismatt signed a minor-league contract with the Texas Rangers that includes an invitation to big-league Spring Training. He turned 31 on Christmas Day and is returning to the Rangers system after a month with Triple-A Round Rock in 2024, when he was released without appearing in the majors. Crismatt has moved among multiple minor-league deals the past three seasons and is out of minor-league options. He threw 34 innings for Arizona in 2025 after 20 MLB innings over 2023-24, posting a 3.71 ERA, 5.9% walk rate and 16.3% strikeout rate. The Rangers are restocking a bullpen that lost several key free agents, and Crismatt will compete as a non-roster invite, though his out-of-options status could affect roster flexibility.
