2023 MLB World Series MVP Corey Seager is the most celebrated Texas Rangers player right now. Since his debut, the slugger has been creating waves in the baseball world with his talent and physical powers. This includes his stature and height, something many have been curious about. As the Rangers celebrate their first Commissioner’s Trophy victory, let’s take a look at the shortstop’s height and whether he is the tallest player on the team.

Height doesn’t always matter to become a skilled baseball player. MLB has never set any minimum height criterion to join the league. So, players of any height can establish dominance in the league. The same can be applied to the Rangers’ shortstop. He is 6 feet 4 inches, but his achievements have taken him high.

6’4” is a considerable height to call a player tall, but the MLB world has examples that even surpass Seager’s height. He doesn’t even come closer to the list of tallest MLB players. For example, there was Randy Johnson, Chris Young, Eric Hillman, and Andy Sisco, standing at 6 feet 10 inches.

Going a bit further, the top slots of the list have players like Jon Rauch, Sean Hjelle, etc., who were 6 feet 11 inches. However, a minor league player, Loek van Mil, was the tallest player in baseball history at 7 feet 1 inch height. 

Coming to Seager’s height, he is not the tallest player in MLB history but can be one of the tallest Rangers players of recent times.

Well, that’s not the case. The 29-year-old shortstop is not the tallest Rangers player. But he is one of them, for sure. The current Rangers club has multiple players with 6’4” height. But the team has two more players who surpass Seager. First, their star pitcher Jordan Montgomery at 6’6”, and second is William Smith at 6 feet 5 inches.
