Five in a row.   Recently updated !

The Rangers September to Remember continues with their fifth consecutive win, and seventh win out of ten games in the month. After beating the New York Mets 8-3 last night, Texas is 6-1 against three playoff-contending teams in this stretch. The usual unusual heroes stepped up again. With the Rangers […]


It’s deGrom time.

After nine years as the ace of the New York Mets rotation, winning a Rookie of the Year Award, two Cy Young Awards, and three All-Star appearances, Jacob deGrom returns where he began: Citi Field. Degrom makes his first-ever start against his former team. He was beloved in Queens. In […]


Sweeping in place.

The good news: The Rangers swept the Brewers.  The bad news: The Rangers didn’t pick up a single game on the Mariners. Making up ground, even a little, is so hard to do when you have to rely on the teams ahead of you to lose rather than beating them […]


Helman again.

In 2023, it was Evan Carter who came out of nowhere to be the Rangers savior. Will 2025’s Evan Carter be Michael Helman? After driving in all five runs in the Rangers 5-0 shutout over the Brewers on Monday, the twenty-nine-year-old rookie homered again on Tuesday, a two-run shot that […]


It’s Michael Helman’s game.

Who is Micheal Helman and how has he quietly become one of the better Rangers bats? His 2025 year is quite a redemption story. Helman is a twenty-nine-year-old outfielder who was drafted by the Minnesota Twins in 2018 and toiled away in their minor league system for seven seasons, finally […]


Rangers stay 1.5 behind Mariners.

The first of their final seven series is of their seasons is over, and both the Rangers and Mariners went 2-1, meaning Texas didn’t pick up any ground. They didn’t lose any, either.  Yesterday the Mariner pounded the Brave 18-2, while the Rangers beat the Astros 4-2. Scores don’t matter. […]


Rangers lose a game to Seattle.

At this point, it really doesn’t matter whether the Rangers lose 1-0 or 11-0. Both yield the same result, an L in a rapidly diminishing supply of games. That their 11-0 trouncing came at the hands of the Astros is irrelevant. The Astros are not their target. Seattle is. Seattle […]


From DFA to MVP for a night.

Five weeks ago, Dustin Harris was DFAed. The Rangers acquired Merril Kelly, Phil Maton, and Danny Coulombe and needed to make room on their forty-man roster. Harris was the odd man out. At one time, Harris had been a valued Rangers prospect. But, like with Blaine Crimm and Justin Foscue, […]


At least it’s Seattle.

You think it’s tough being a Rangers fan this year? At least you’re not a Mariners fan any year. The only reason the Ranger have a legitimate shot at catching the Mariners for that third wild card spot is because it’s the Mariners. If it was any other team ahead […]
