The Rangers are actively talking with the White Sox about outfielder Alex Rios, according to Major League sources. Rios is hitting .278 with 12 home runs and 48 RBI in 95 games. He signed for next year at $12.5 million so the Rangers would get more than a rental player. The Rangers are looking for another bat and they are also concerned about the possibility of Nelson Cruz getting suspended.
