Smith to the i.l., Foscue up

The Texas Rangers have placed infielder Josh Smith on the injured list with a right glute strain, the team announced today.

Jonah Heim to the Athletics

Catcher Jonah Heim, who signed with the Atlanta Braves this offseason after being non-tendered by the Texas Rangers, was traded to the Athletics yesterday for cash considerations.

Monday Morning Texas Rangers Update

Good morning. Shawn McFarland is contractually obligated to type words about the unproductive Texas Rangers offense for the several hundredth time as he checks in on how the club has performed recently. But now McFarland is also forced to write about the defense letting the Rangers down more often this season, as it did in […]

Tigers 7, Rangers 1: A Torkelson blast and a good bullpen game

The Detroit Tigers bullpen put together a really impressive game as six different relievers handled the Rangers without much trouble. Meanwhile, Spencer Torkelson supplied some power, and a parade of soft hits that found holes helped them pile up the runs and win this series two games to one on Sunday night. The Tigers have […]

Sunday morning Rangers things

Good morning, folks… The Texas Rangers fell to the Detroit Tigers by a score of 5-1 last night. The DMN writes that Kumar Rocker’s performance was a reminder of the non-linearity of progress.

The Detroit Tigers evened up their weekend home series against the Texas Rangers on Saturday night with a 5-1 victory.

16-17 – Winning streak eludes Rangers with 5-1 loss to Tigers

The Texas Rangers scored a run but the Detroit Tigers scored five runs. I regret to inform you that the Rangers were back on their bullshit.

Saturday morning Rangers stuff

Good morning, LSB. The Rangers scored late to beat the Tigers 5-4. Shawn McFarland writes about Zeke Duran’s big night and big catch.

Still waiting on a Wyatt Langford […]

Game 34 Preview: Tigers look to even series with Texas

The Detroit Tigers opened up their six-game homestand with a 5-4 loss to the Texas Rangers on Friday night.

The Rangers offense after one month

The Texas Rangers are 31 games into the 2026 season, and having closed the book on the month of April,* I think it is a worthwhile time to take a look at how the Rangers hitters have fared so far. * Idiomatically, when we discuss the month of April in regards to the MLB regular […]
