Thoughts on a 9-2 Rangers loss
Yankees 9, Rangers 2
17-20 – Rangers experiment with no-outfielder defense in 9-2 finale loss to Yankees
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 […]

Thoughts on a 6-1 Rangers win
Rangers 6, Yankees 1
17-19 – No complaints as Rangers, Eovaldi handle Yankees 6-1
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 […]

Thoughts on a 7-4 Rangers loss
Yankees 7, Rangers 4
16-19 – Rangers let Yankees off the hook, fall 7-4 in opener
The Texas Rangers scored four runs but the New York Yankees scored seven runs. Yankees starter Elmer Rodriguez has had a peculiar beginning to his big league career. The 22-year-old has been a big leaguer for just two games in which he has played and both have been starts against the Rangers, a team not […]

Texas Rangers lineup for May 5, 2026 against the New York Yankees: starting pitchers are Jacob deGrom for the Rangers and Elmer Rodriguez for the Yankees. The Rangers have a game in New York this evening, and have a weird looking lineup. The lineup: Carter — CF Seager — SS Jung — 3B Pederson — […]
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. Heim went to camp with the Braves on a minor league deal, but with veteran Sean Murphy starting the year on the injured list, Heim was on the […]
Tuesday Morning Texas Rangers Update
Good morning. MLB dot com’s Benjamin Rosenberg writes that the Texas Rangers are getting it done in relief without having a lot of strikeouts or flamethrowers. Matt Snyder writes that with Tarik Skubal out, the AL Cy Young race is wide open with Jacob deGrom among the new favorites. And, the DMN notes that former […]

Thoughts on a 7-1 Rangers loss
Tigers 7, Rangers 1
16-18 – Leiter imperfect therefore Rangers lose series to Tigers
The Texas Rangers scored one run but the Detroit Tigers scored seven runs. Looks like I picked the right day to not be subscribed to the 20th different service that MLB has shoved exclusive games on. The Rangers had a guy striking out everyone and perfect into the fifth inning against a team going with […]
