The team was established in 1989 as a shared affiliate of the Texas Rangers, Chicago White Sox, and Houston Astros.[1] For 1990 and 1991, they were an independent Rangers affiliate. For 1992, they shared an affiliation with the expansion Florida Marlins.[2] In 1993, they shared an affiliation with the Chicago Cubs.[3] In 1994, they shared an affiliation with the Atlanta Braves.[4] They became an independent Rangers affiliate again in 1995 and have remained so ever since. The team has split into two squads three different times in their existence: 1997, 2008, 2009, and since 2014.[5]
In 2019, the Rangers opened a new $12.5 million organizationally owned Dominican Academy complex in Boca Chica.[6] The complex includes three full size fields, a 18,500 square-foot clubhouse with lockers for 100 players, a 2,500 square-foot weight room, a 10,000 square-foot batting cage, and a 30,000 square-foot dormitory which accommodates 96 players and 29 staff members.
