2026 Fantasy Outlook
Higashioka inked a two-year deal with Texas last winter and split catching duties in 2025 with Jonah Heim, who was non-tendered by the Rangers in November. Heim operated as Texas' primary backstop the past four years, but Higashioka will likely remain in a secondary role since the club also signed Danny Jansen to a two-year, $14.5 million pact. Higashioka provides stability behind the plate, but he offers limited offensive upside and finished 2025 with 11 home runs, 47 RBI, 33 runs and a .694 OPS in 94 games. He did club 17 long balls in fewer plate appearances during 2024 but isn't likely to see enough volume to get close to that mark in 2026. Read Past Outlooks
