Arrighetti Locks Down Rangers, Astros Take Series with 5-1 Win

The Astros best starter this season has been a guy not deemed good enough to make the Opening Day roster. Spencer Arrighetti (W, 7-1) picked up his 7th win in 8 starts with another terrific performance, limiting the Texas Rangers (25-31) to one run over 6 innings as the Houston Astros (26-32) took 3 of […]

25-31 – Rangers doomed from the start in 5-1 loss to Astros

The Texas Rangers scored one run but the Houston Astros scored five runs. Just about the only thing that ultimately went well for the Rangers tonight was Yordan Alvarez didn’t hit what surely would have been his 47th homer in this series if my count is correct. Instead, both Jeremy Pena and Isaac Paredes went […]

Texas Rangers DFA 5x All-Star & Former MVP Winner

The Texas Rangers designated Andrew McCutchen for assignment ahead of their game against the Houston Astros, ending the veteran's tenure in Arlington after 37 games and signing utility infielder Nicky Lopez to a one-year major league contract in a corresponding move. McCutchen, 39, signed with Texas on a minor league deal in March and earned his way onto the Opening Day roster, serving primarily as the right-handed half of a designated hitter platoon with Joc Pederson. McCutchen Heads to the...

Former Pirate Andrew McCutchen DFA’d by Texas Rangers

Do the Bucs need a DH? One just got released onto the market, as former Pittsburgh Pirates star Andrew McCutchen was just designated for assignment by the Texas Rangers. The Bucs have two big, glaring holes in their hitting lineup. First one is at catcher, where Endy Rodriguez is hitting .319, but only with 19 […]

Yordan Homers Twice to Back Burrows in Astros 4-3 Win Over Rangers

Yordan Alvarez has been absolutely on fire in this series, and he continued his torrid stretch at the plate with 2 more home runs to back SP Mike Burrows (W, 3-6) in the Houston Astros (25-32) 4-3 victory over the Texas Rangers (25-30) tonight in Arlington. Burrows tossed 7 innings of 2-run ball, allowing only […]

25-30 – Rangers get back to business with 4-3 loss to Astros

The Texas Rangers scored three runs while the Houston Astros scored four runs. Eschewing the exchange of bizarre history that highlighted the first two games of this series, the Rangers and Astros instead settled into more standard fare at The Shed tonight with a low-scoring contest that sort of became a home run derby between […]

Rangers sign Lopez, DFA McCutchen

The Texas Rangers have signed infielder Nicky Lopez to a one year deal, the team announced today. To make room for Lopez on the active roster, the Rangers have designated outfielder/DH Andrew McCutchen for assignment. I’m really baffled by this move. McCutchen hasn’t hit well this season, slashing .192/.277/.260, including a .186/.300/.302 line against lefthanded […]

Wednesday Morning Links

Morning, all! Tuesday was Josh Jung’s first game back after missing two games with a sore shoulder, an injury that “freaked him out”due to a surgery he had for a torn labrum on the same shoulder four years ago. Jacob deGrom hasn’t missed any starts but maybe he wishes that he had, as he’s been […]

8 Run First Inning Dooms Astros in 10-7 Loss to Rangers

Every bit of the euphoria from Monday’s combined no-hitter was gone before the Astros came up to bat a second time. Poor defense and poor location by starter Jason Alexander (L, 1-1) led to an 8-run first inning by the Texas Rangers (25-29), a hole the Houston Astros (24-32) could not overcome this evening. In […]

25-29 – Prideful Rangers punish Astros 10-7

The Texas Rangers scored ten runs while the Houston Astros scored seven runs. Tonight’s starter for Houston Jason Alexander must feel like the biggest chump alive. After the Rangers nearly experienced a perfect game against them in Anaheim two games ago, and then saw these Astros toss a no-hitter against them last night, Alexander had […]
