The Texas Rangers need pitching help. Even with Yu Darvish returning, there may be a couple of trades that could help the team going forward.

If you are a Texas Rangers fan, congratulations and sorry for your loss. Congrats because you will soon have stud pitcher Yu Darvish back in your rotation by the beginning of June, where he will favorably pair up with Cole Hamels to make your starting duo one of the best in the MLB.

Sorry because your 29th ranked bullpen has been dropping wins for you left and right while your starters are unable to do anything about it. This situation came to a head on Tuesday when Scott Tolleson was unable to close in the ninth and proceeded to give up a walk off win for the Athletics.

However, there is always hope when you have the third best farm system in the game, as the Rangers do, and you have a GM who is crazy enough to do a blockbuster move at the drop of a hat. Plain and simple, the Rangers need help with their relief pitching.

Below I have listed two teams (coincidentally both from New York) who need what the Rangers have, but also have what the Rangers need.
