The Rangers shifted Bobby Jones into the role of replay coordinator for this season to have "long-term baseball eyes ... managerial eyes'' in the position, manager Jeff Banister said.

This is Jones' 50th season in the game. He managed 24 seasons in the Rangers' minor league system.

The Rangers had the worst reversal rate in the majors last season, according to baseballalmanac.com, at 31.5 percent for 54 challenges. Their last 13 challenges, including the postseason, were not overturned.

"I just don't want to leave anything on the table, if we feel there's an opportunity,'' Banister said. "Bobby is a tremendous asset to me, our players, this organization.''

Jones has said he will retire after this season. Banister left the door open for a return, if Jones can be persuaded to change his mind.

"I might twist his arm to come back,'' Banister said. "You never know.''

The New York Yankees had the highest success rate on challenges at 24 of 32 for 75 percent.
