The Cincinnati Reds have somehow already navigated their way through 20 games of Cactus League play so far this spring, and it honestly feels as if they’ve played 37 of those 20 games at home in Goodyear. Today, they’re in Goodyear again, too – this time playing host to the Texas Rangers. Cincinnati will send […]

The Texas Rangers have signed lefthanded relief pitcher Jalen Beeks to a one year deal, the team announced today. To make room for him on the 40 man roster, the Rangers have designated relief pitcher Alexis Diaz for assignment. So this is interesting.

He was with the Rays until the 2023 offseason, when he was claimed on waivers by the Colorado […]

Jacob Webb is another well-traveled veteran reliever, having had stops with the Braves, Angels, Orioles, Rangers, and now the Cubs. He’s 32 years old, was drafted by Atlanta in the 18th round in 2014, and has been pretty dependable, throwing to ERAs in the threes for the most part. He walks a few more people […]

The majority of the core that won the 2023 World Series is still present on the Rangers roster three years later. The unrelenting passage of time and the fragile nature of the human body has meant that, even though many of the names are the same, the talent level on this roster is much less […]

I didn’t go to this game and, well, the Cubs didn’t much show up either, defeated by the Rangers 8-3. Cade Horton got cuffed around pretty good, serving up six hits, including three home runs. Horton worked 3.2 innings and threw 60 pitches. Was he working on mechanics or location? Maybe. Hopefully this is just […]

Go get ‘em, Cade.

Behind a full, healthy season from Jacob deGrom, a career-best and injury-shortened season from Nathan Eovaldi, and a big step forward from Jack Leiter, the starting rotation was among the best in baseball and the bullpen was deceptively deep. Even though the team led […]
