The latest on the once and future World Series champion Texas Rangers
Good morning.
After getting dominated by Tarik Skubal, Evan Grant writes about how the Texas Rangers haven’t been able to put their best foot forward against top notch pitching.
Kennedi Landry writes about Jacob Latz stepping up to go toe-to-toe with Skubal before the Rangers lost late last evening.
Grant ponders if the Rangers will continue riding the hot hand with Kyle Higashioka at catcher.
Grant notes that Jon Gray is close to making his 2025 debut for Texas, but his role has not yet been revealed.
Mike Axisa’s bold second half predictions sees the Rangers on the outside looking in for October so pack it up, I guess.
Grant writes that Nathan Eovaldi appears to have dodged an IL trip after missing last evening’s start with a balky back.
Grant writes that the Rangers will have to see if reliever Chris Martin is as fortunate as Eovaldi as Martin left Sunday’s loss with a leg ailment.
And, the DMN folks have a handful of things to know about newest Ranger Cody Freeman, who went from prospect to watch to fresh big leaguer over the weekend.
Have a nice day!
