The Rangers took three of four against the Red Sox. Here are a few thoughts, some crazier than others. Corey Seager started just two games at short. He DHed one game and sat out one game. Keeping him healthy seems like it’s going to be a season-long challenge. Maybe he […]
Only three games in and we are starting to get a glimpse of how the Rangers might use the back end of the bullpen. Luke Jackson got the first save opportunity on Friday, and converted it, after crashing and burning in a non-save situation on opening day. Then, last night, […]
Game 2 of the season couldn’t have been more satisfying. So many good storylines to make fans feel good about what’s to come. Jack Leiter allowed just one run. He bent a few times but never cracked. It was a marked difference from last year when he seemed to be […]
Luke Jackson gives up a three-run homer in the 9th. When last Rangers fans saw Luke Jackson in a Texas uniform, he was performing about as well as he did last night. A first-round pick by the Rangers in 2010, Jackson made his Rangers debut in 2015. It was unspectacular. […]
Finally, it’s here. After watching other teams battle in the playoffs last year. After watching another team win it all. After a long offseason and what seems like an even longer pre-season of anticipation, opening day is here. For a baseball fanatic, this is the best day of the year. […]
We can discuss things like who is playing centerfield, what is the rotation going to look like, who is going to step and and be the closer. But what’s really important as the Rangers head into 2025 is what is new to eat at The Shed? The Rangers announced they […]
The Rangers have waved Dane Dunning. Teams have forty-eight hours in which to make a claim for him. They must pick up the entirety of his $2.66 million salary. Texas acquired Dunning in a trade with the Chicago White Sox for Lance Lynn in 2021. He had been a first-round […]
There’s a week left in spring training. This is the point where it gets monotonous. You see the finish line. You see opening day staring at you. You just want to get the season started. But spring training still matter for some people. Look at the Rangers games last night. […]
Leody Taveras continues to struggle in spring. Evan Carter continues to show he cannot hit lefties in spring. He’s not tearing it up against righties either. Alejandro Osuna continues to hit the ball hard every at-bat he gets in spring. He had one at-bat in yesterday’s 3-2 loss to Seattle […]
Desperation, thy name is Patrick Corbin. After losing Jon Gray to a wrist fracture and Cody Bradford to a sore forearm, and with Tyler Mahle and Jacob deGrom just one pitch away from their seasons ending, the Rangers needed an innings eater. They went with Patrick Corbin, of all people. […]
