By Leo Morgenstern | at September 12, 2026 3:32pm CDT Pavin Smith is back in Arizona. According to Alex Weiner of Arizona Sports, the lefty batter will be in the Diamondbacks’ lineup this evening as they take on the Rangers. The D-backs designated Smith for assignment and sent him outright to Triple-A Reno in July. So, they will need to clear a 40-man space before they can officially add him back to the roster.

Good morning, LSB. The Rangers lost another last night, a 9-1 stomping by the Diamondbacks. Evan Grant writes that…yeah, that might just about do it for this version of the Texas Rangers.

Record: 79-69. Pace: 86-76. Change on 2025: +6. In the middle of the fifth inning, this looked like another one of those Diamondbacks games, which have been all too common lately. They were trailing 1-0 to the Rangers, starter Merrill Kelly was out, and the team had never really looked like scoring. But they then […]
The Cleveland Guardians are surging while their playoff rivals are falling away. The Guardians defeated the Minnesota Twins for their third win in five games. Meanwhile, the Toronto Blue Jays, Texas Rangers and Chicago White Sox all extended their losing streaks. With the win, the Guardians moved to within half a game of the White Sox for the AL Central lead, and two games clear of all challengers in the wild-card race. The Baltimore Orioles, who beat the Blue Jays, were the only other team in...

PHOENIX — The Rangers and Diamondbacks were in a scoreless stalemate for four innings on Friday night as they opened a three-game set at Chase Field. MacKenzie Gore and Merrill Kelly, both having disappointing seasons by their standards, kept things moving quickly early for two teams still in the postseason chase. Nathan Eovaldi Flying Ace Bobblehead is Wednesday! Kelly broke first, with the Rangers scoring on a Joc Pederson one-out double to chase him from the game. But faced with the Arizona...
Justin Martinez was immaculate on Friday. To be more specific, the Arizona Diamondbacks reliever threw an immaculate inning against the Texas Rangers, striking out three hitters on three pitches each in the sixth frame. Six of those pitchers were faster than 100 mph. The victims: Wyatt Langford, Evan Carter and Jake Burger. With only 123 immaculate innings in MLB history, it remains a feat more rare than a no-hitter, though there have been far more in recent years as pitchers dial up their vel...
The Texas Rangers scored a run but the Arizona Diamondbacks scored nine runs. It’s pretty ironic that in the span of about an hour, the 2026 Texas Rangers were laid to rest at Chase Field. I’ve watched nearly 150 games of this baseball team this season and have written about how a moment or sequence […]
PHOENIX — Pitchers coming back from Tommy John surgery aren’t always guaranteed to be able to hit the ground running when they return, but for Arizona Diamondbacks reliever Justin Martinez, that couldn’t be further from the truth.

It is obligatory to include a reference to the 2023 World Series in every preview between these two teams, so let’s get that out of the way first. As we remember well, Texas prevailed in five games. But since then? Neither team has returned to the playoffs. It was the first World Series since 2006 […]
The 2026 MLB trade deadline was almost six weeks ago, and as you may recall, the situation for the Texas Rangers was very fluid at the time. There were reports that the Rangers were saying that no one was off-limits and that they were listening on everybody after getting swept in Houston the weekend before […]
