ESPNDallas reported on Sunday that the Texas Rangers "keep coming back" to Mike Lowell when discussing options for a righthanded-hitting corner infielder.

The goal for the Rangers is to find someone who can replace first baseman Chris Davis against tough lefthanded pitchers and who can spell Michael Young occasionally at third base as well.

From the report:
The Rangers scouts, one team source said, keep coming back to Boston's Mike Lowell, the player the Rangers were ready to trade for this past winter until questions about his injured thumb and surgically-repaired hip resurfaced.

The club source said the Rangers believe they can still basically get Lowell for the player they were willing to give up over the winter, Max Ramirez.
