Texas Rangers DFA 5x All-Star & Former MVP Winner
The Texas Rangers designated Andrew McCutchen for assignment ahead of their game against the Houston Astros, ending the veteran's tenure in Arlington after 37 games and signing utility infielder Nicky Lopez to a one-year major league contract in a corresponding move. McCutchen, 39, signed with Texas on a minor league deal in March and earned his way onto the Opening Day roster, serving primarily as the right-handed half of a designated hitter platoon with Joc Pederson. McCutchen Heads to the...
Yordan Homers Twice to Back Burrows in Astros 4-3 Win Over Rangers

Burrows tossed 7 innings of 2-run ball, allowing only […]
25-30 – Rangers get back to business with 4-3 loss to Astros
The Texas Rangers scored three runs while the Houston Astros scored four runs. Eschewing the exchange of bizarre history that highlighted the first two games of this series, the Rangers and Astros instead settled into more standard fare at The Shed tonight with a low-scoring contest that sort of became a home run derby between […]

MLB News Outside The Confines: A no-hitter in Houston
Good morning.
8 Run First Inning Dooms Astros in 10-7 Loss to Rangers
Every bit of the euphoria from Monday’s combined no-hitter was gone before the Astros came up to bat a second time. Poor defense and poor location by starter Jason Alexander (L, 1-1) led to an 8-run first inning by the Texas Rangers (25-29), a hole the Houston Astros (24-32) could not overcome this evening. In […]
25-29 – Prideful Rangers punish Astros 10-7
The Texas Rangers scored ten runs while the Houston Astros scored seven runs. Tonight’s starter for Houston Jason Alexander must feel like the biggest chump alive. After the Rangers nearly experienced a perfect game against them in Anaheim two games ago, and then saw these Astros toss a no-hitter against them last night, Alexander had […]

Astros Recall OF Taylor Trammell, Option OF Zach Cole
The Astros optioned OF Zach Cole to Triple A Sugar Land following last night’s game. Taking his place on the active roster, the Astros reinstated OF Taylor Trammell from the 10-day IL today. This move makes a lot of sense right now, as Cole (8×51, 3 HR 8 RBI 21K in 51 AB) has struggled […]

Texas Rangers lineup for May 26, 2026 against the Houston Astros: starting pitchers are Jack Leiter for the Rangers and Jason Alexander for the Astros. Sigh. Its another game.

Astros 9, Rangers 0
The Rockies and the amazing purple-colored home run coat
To make a memorable entrance, timing is everything. That’s what happened on April 6, 2026, when the Colorado Rockies pulled off a come-from-behind win over the Houston Astros. Sure, the win was great, but fans probably also remember the debut of the Rockies purple home run coat. The coat announced its presence after Troy Johnston […]

It’s a huge mark for Imai, who was making his 6th start of the […]
