Guzman, 43, compiled an 80-74 record in 193 career major league appearances with the Rangers and Chicago Cubs. Signed as an undrafted free agent by Texas in February, 1981, he made his major league debut as a 22-year-old in September, 1985, winning three of five starts.

Guzman was a mainstay in the Rangers rotation over the next three seasons, winning 34 games and pitching over 200 innings twice.

He was not in the Rangers pitching plans when he came to spring training in 1991 and was actually released before signing an Oklahoma City contract. After just three starts, he was promoted to Texas and on May 23, pitching in his first major league game since September 1988.
