Rangers Trade Festa, Robert in Roster Shakeup

The Texas Rangers made two pitching trades, sending reliever Daniel Robert to the Philadelphia Phillies for 20-year-old prospect Enrique Segura and trading veteran right-hander Matt Festa to the Cleveland Guardians for cash considerations. Robert, recently designated for assignment, joins the Phillies' bullpen after a strong Triple-A performance, while Segura adds long-term depth for Texas. Festa, who excelled at Triple-A Round Rock, will join the Guardians' system and may contribute at the Major League level this season. These moves are part of a larger pattern, as the Rangers have been actively reshaping their pitching staff through trades and waiver transactions. The Guardians continue their strategy of acquiring experienced arms to address pitching injuries and depth needs. The Rangers' roster management now focuses on developing young talent amid ongoing bullpen changes.
