Ken Rosenthal and Alanna Rizzo react to Aaron Judge pushing back on Aaron Boone’s injury prognosis and examine the unusual disconnect surrounding the Yankees star. They break down the final weekend of the regular season, including the sub-.500 Astros and Rangers tied atop the AL West, the AL Central race and the battle for NL Wild Card seeding. On Inside Dish, Ken explains why the Reds have failed to follow the Brewers’ model, whether Cincinnati mismanaged its assets and how the organization s...
Technically, there’s a miniscule chance the Mariners could sneak into the playoffs. They’d need to win out and both the Rangers and Astros would have to lose out. That would give all three teams a 78-84 record and Seattle would take the division via a three-way tiebreaker. FanGraphs thinks the chances of that happening are […]
Texas Rangers lineup for September 24, 2026 against the New York Mets: starting pitchers are Kumar Rocker for the Rangers and Zac Thornton for the Mets. The Rangers this afternoon try to finish their home schedule with a win, avoid a sweep, keep alive their hopes of a winning record, and keep afloat in their […]
The Houston Astros and Texas Rangers are battling it out. Both have losing records (78-80) and are duking it out for the American League West Division title. So whoever wins will carry an added stigma. On Wednesday, the Astros played the Seattle Mariners. Houston gave up a 4-o lead to the Mariners, resulting in a […] The post 2026 AL Standings: Astros’ 4-run choke job costly in pathetic AL West battle vs. Rangers appeared first on ClutchPoints .
Getty Images The American League West race is still very much in the air, even with mere days — hours, if you’re partial to more difficult arithmetic — remaining in the 2026 Major League Baseball season. This would normally yield a certain amount of taut intrigue, given that a playoff berth and World Series aspirations hinge upon the outcome. Normally. This, though, is the AL West in 2026, and normality is not welcome here. What is intrigue? It is the unknown punctuated by the compelling. The ...
There have been some rather mediocre teams to sneak into the postseason via the Wild Card in recent years, especially with a third Wild Card spot now included in MLB. For the most part, however, good teams often end up winning divisions. That won’t be the case in the American League West this season. The […] The post Rangers or Astros likely to reach embarrassing new low for MLB division winner appeared first on ClutchPoints .
Good morning! As Matt lays out today, there is a very slight possibility that the Red Sox fall to the third Wild Card slot, thus avoiding the first round Yankees matchup that has seemed all but inevitable for weeks now. Instead of Yankee Stadium, the Sox would head out west to face either the Rangers […]
Morning, all! The Rangers have optioned Winston Santos and recalled right handed pitcher Gavin Collyer for the final, probably futile, push for the playoffs. Aggressive bullpen usage wasn’t enough to keep the Rangers in the game last night and the ultimately fell 7-2 to the mets, leaving them 1.5 games behind Houston for the AL […]
It’s almost the end of the season, and while the Braves are safe from the mild insanity, it doesn’t mean it can’t take hold elsewhere. In the AL West, or really the AL Texas division at this point, both the Rangers and Astros are two games under .500 and tied atop the division. The loser probably won’t make the final AL Wild Card spot. (The Astros hold the tiebreaker.) It’d be funny if both teams lost out, leading to probably the worst team, record-wise, to ever receive a playoff spot in MLB. ...

Nolan McLean has made reliability one of the biggest parts of his rookie season with the New York Mets so far. For the right-hander, that has been more important than any individual numbers he has put up. McLean made that clear after Wednesday night’s 7-2 win over the Texas Rangers. He allowed two runs on […] The post Mets’ Nolan McLean opens up on 2026 achievement he’s so proud of appeared first on ClutchPoints .

The Texas Rangers scored two runs but the New York Mets scored seven runs. Oh. So baseball games are telling jokes now, huh?
