The Rangers plan to give Mike Olt the majority of his work at third base and right field in spring training.

Olt likely won't see much playing time behind Adrian Beltre, but he'll be used as insurance in right field for Nelson Cruz, who is among the group of players connected to PEDs and Biogenesis. The Rangers' top prospect behind Jurickson Profar, Olt he remains largely unproven at the major league level and won't be guaranteed a bench spot going into the season.
