| Player Notes |
| December 20, 2005 The Padres acquired Adrian Gonzalez, Chris Young and Terrmel Sledge from the Rangers for Adam Eaton, Akinori Otsuka and a minor league prospect, according to the AP. He will try to steal some time away from Ryan Klesko at first base. |
| September 30, 2005 Adrian Gonzalez got his first major league start in right field on Friday, according to the AP. "We'll get his feet wet and hope they don't sink," manager Buck Showalter said. Gonzalez has been a first baseman throughout his pro career and hasn't played the outfield since he was 12 years old. |
| September 27, 2005 Rangers manager Buck Showalter said that Adrian Gonzalez will work in the outfield in instructional league and perhaps play there next season. "It's something we talked about and thought about but (it didn't happen) until he and his agent embraced it," Showalter said. |
| August 19, 2005 The Rangers recalled Adrian Gonzalez from Triple-A Oklahoma yesterday, according to the Star-Telegram. Manager Buck Showalter said he wants to use Gonzalez as the designated hitter at least against right-handed starters. |
| July 31, 2005 The Rangers optioned Adrian Gonzalez to Triple-A Oklahoma on Sunday. Gonzalez went 4-for-12 with one home run, three RBI and two walks during his brief stint in the majors this month. |
| July 24, 2005 Adrian Gonzalez went 2-for-3 with a walk and a run scored on Sunday. He spelled Mark Teixeira at first base while Teixeira served as the DH. It was Gonzalez's first game in the big leagues since April. |
| July 23, 2005 The Rangers recalled Adrian Gonzalez from Triple-A Oklahoma on Saturday. Gonzalez was hitting .316 with 13 homers and 46 RBI in 73 games for Oklahoma, and he hit .194 with two homers and four RBI in nine games for the Rangers earlier this season. |
| April 20, 2005 The Rangers assigned Adrian Gonzalez to Triple-A Oklahoma on Wednesday after he opened the season hitting .194 with two home runs in 36 at-bats. |
| April 7, 2005 Adrian Gonzalez will get his first start of the year today at DH, according to the Dallas Morning News. David Dellucci started the opener and Chad Allen started Wednesday with a lefty on the mound. Rangers manager Buck Showalter indicated that Gonzalez will start Friday and Saturday and said it's very possible he will get the majority of DH at-bats. |
| April 3, 2005 The Rangers are expected to announce today that Adrian Gonzalez will open the season as their primary designated hitter, according to the Dallas Morning News. |
| March 3, 2005 The Rangers have not ruled out opening the year with Adrian Gonzalez as their starting designated hitter, according to the Dallas Morning News. However, he may eventually lose out to David Dellucci and Greg Colbrunn, who have the inside track on the job because they are more versatile. |
| February 16, 2005 The Rangers signed Adrian Gonzalez to a split contract, according to the Star-Telegram. He hit .310 with 84 RBI for Triple-A Oklahoma last season. |
