The 2019 Texas Rangers season was the 59th of the Texas Rangers franchise overall, their 48th in Arlington as the Rangers, and their 26th and final season at Globe Life Park in Arlington. The Rangers began the season on March 28 against the Chicago Cubs and finished the season on September 29 against the New York Yankees. On November 2, 2018, Chris Woodward was hired to be the manager of the Rangers for the 2019 season. Despite a strong May and June for the team, they fell apart after that, failing to qualify for the postseason for the third consecutive year.
