Morning, all!
Cody Freeman is now the Rangers backup catcher, though the last time he caught anything besides a bullpen session was 2023.
Joc Pederson could be nearing a return from the IL after fracturing his hand May 24. That may be subtraction by addition given his numbers before the injury, though Bruce Bochy says he has a “different look” now.
The Rangers have agreed to terms with 17 of their 20 draftees.
Gavin Fien, Chris Young says, embodies everything the Ranger organization looks for in a player.
Wyatt Langford scored the winning run last night due to “flat out hustle,” going from first to home in 10 seconds on a botched fly ball.
Patrick Corbin has been a dependable mainstay for the Rangers this season, which was expected given his history. He’s also been really effective, which wasn’t.
Jon Gray’s return from the IL has landed him in the bullpen, which was badly in need of reinforcements.
Gray wasted no time and made an impact right out of the gate, extinguishing an Athletic threat in his first relief appearance.
