After starting with two scoreless outings, he has allowed exactly three earned runs in each of his last five starts. So you pretty much know what you’re getting with a Cabrera start. This will […]

Chicago Cubs vs. Texas Rangers preview, Saturday 5/9, 6:05 CT
Does a one-pitch homer count as a sequence for anyone? It’s a fair question but bending the rules is ok. What’s also ok is what Adolis Garcia is doing at the plate. The results haven’t been flashy and the underlying stuff is just fine. He is hitting the ball harder but is also not pulling […]
Good morning ,LSB. The Rangers lost to the Cubs last night with what was, by my count, their fourth horrible loss in five games. Evan Grant focuses on maybe the worst defensive play in MLB this season in his game story. Kennedi Landry writes about the weird night for Kumar Rocker. Jeff Wilson says far […]
All year, the Cubs have gone by a “next man up” mantra. Thus, when Matthew Boyd went down with a knee injury this week, Ben Brown was tabbed to make the start in his place. It was Brown’s first start of the year, and his past results as a starter have been uneven. Like just […]
The Texas Rangers scored a run but the Chicago Cubs scored seven runs. The Rangers introduced Elvis Cam tonight with Elvis Andrus manning one of the television cameras for an inning or so. It was a cute idea to see a Rangers legend and fan favorite covering the “action” but then they ended up forcing […]
Go get ‘em, Ben.
On the scoreboard, Thursday’s series finale against the Rangers went quite well, as the Yankes won fairly comfortably, clinching another series win. However, the victory did include an injury to Jasson Domínguez, who has hit the IL after hurting his shoulder crashing into the left field while making a catch. Domínguez’s IL trip has led […]
Today’s roster move: Here Friday notes… Cubs lineup: Rangers lineup: Ben Brown, RHP vs. Kumar Rocker, RHP This is Ben Brown’s first start of 2026. Given that he has maxed out at 50 pitches in a game this year — and that was on March 31 vs. the Angels — this is likely to be […]
Cubs 7, Rangers 1: Ben Brown’s great start helps the winning streak reach 10

Texas Rangers lineup for May 8, 2026 against the Chicago Cubs: starting pitchers are Kumar Rocker for the Rangers and Ben Brown for the Cubs. Texas is back at the Shed after a six game road trip. You will be happy to know that Brandon Nimmo is back in right field. The lineup: Nimmo — […]
The Cubs met up with an AL West team in their second series of 2026 and took two of three from an Angels club that has fallen into the basement in their division. This weekend they’ll visit another AL West team, the Rangers. For more on the Rangers, here’s Adam Morris, manager of our SB […]
It was a busy day in Yankee land, as the Bombers won an early afternoon game against the Rangers, while also calling up one of the franchise’s more exciting prospects in Spencer Jones. It was an all around good win against Texas, as the Yanks were able to maintain their narrow lead in the East. […]
Good morning, LSB. The Rangers lost to the Yankees yesterday, 9-2. Evan Grant writes about the slim margin of error the Rangers have to work with in order to get a win these days. Kennedi Landry touches on MacKenzie Gore, who was in control through five innings before the wheels shot off. Joc Pederson started […]
Yankees 9, Rangers 2
After a minor blip on Wednesday night, the Yankees got back to their winning ways, bruising their way past the Rangers en route to a series win. I’m sure Wednesday’s limp offensive effort, which bled into a slow start to the game on Thursday, had some fans worried that the offense was about to head […]
The Texas Rangers scored twice but the New York Yankees scored nine runs. No team in the American League is very good right now except for the team the Rangers have played like six times in the last two weeks, which happens to be the team they played today. The Rangers won two of those […]
Jasson Domínguez exited today’s game against the Rangers after a scary collision with the left field wall. Brandon Nimmo, Texas’ leadoff hitter, sent a line drive to left, which Domínguez caught before ramming into the wall. Domínguez immediately went to the ground and Aaron Boone and the team’s trainers quickly ran to the outfield. The left fielder was […]
It’s getaway day game time at the Stadium! The Yankees are up bright and early for a 12:35 pm start as they host the Rangers, seeking to win their sixth consecutive series. The Bombers outslugged Texas and handed a second loss to Jacob deGrom in the opener, before suffering a second defeat at the hands […]

Texas plays a very early game in New York today. It is the final game of the road trip, and will determine whether the Rangers win or lose this […]
Rangers 6, Yankees 1
The Texas Rangers scored six runs while the New York Yankees scored one run. After much consternation over the last few days (weeks? months? years?) about the offense, the Rangers had a few ingredients going for them tonight that left us with a better taste in our mouths. For one, they had Nathan Eovaldi on […]
One night after taking down the Rangers and two-time Cy Young Award winner Jacob deGrom, the Yanks are at it again in the Bronx, with the chance to win their sixth consecutive series. It’s been a torrid start to the 2026 season, driven in large part by outstanding starting pitching. One of the hurlers who’s […]
