  • Corey Seager’s three-run homer leads Rangers
    Corey Seager hit a three-run homer in the eighth to lead the Rangers past the A’s 4-2 on Monday.

    Advice: The Rangers were still scoreless until Seager took Lucas Erceg deep in the eighth. They then added an insurance run in the ninth. The homer was Seager’s third in 33 games this season. He’s obviously still way off his 2023 numbers, but not in such a way that he’s a particularly weaker bet for the rest of the season. Rotoworld 39 minutes ago
  • Andrew Heaney turns in quality start versus A’s
    Andrew Heaney allowed two runs — one earned — over six innings Monday against the A’s.

    Advice: Still no wins for Heaney, though the Rangers finally did prevail in one of his starts for the first time this season. Heaney remained 0-4 with a 4.50 ERA in spite of a second straight inspiring effort. He’s still in line to be supplanted if the Rangers get healthier. Expectations were that Max Scherzer would soon take his rotation spot, but the Rangers will likely still have room for him with Nathan Eovaldi and Cody Bradford on the shelf. Rotoworld 39 minutes ago
  • Kirby Yates notches save against A’s
    Kirby Yates earned his sixth save with a hitless ninth Monday against the Athletics.

    Advice: After settling for a win in a two-inning outing on Sunday, Yates was back closing tonight and had an easy time versus the A’s. David Roberson also pitched in a second straight game tonight, so the Rangers might need to think outside of the box if they have another lead Monday. Perhaps José Leclerc or Josh Sborz could earn a save. Rotoworld 39 minutes ago
  • Alex Wood shuts down Rangers in no-decision
    Alex Wood blanked the Rangers for six innings in a no-decision Monday.

    Advice: Wood didn’t quite dominate in striking out three tonight, but he lowered his ERA from 6.32 to 5.30. He has a kind matchup against the Mariners in Seattle next time out, but he’s unlikely to be much of a factor in mixed leagues going forward. Rotoworld 40 minutes ago
  • Goes yard again
    Ramirez went 1-for-4 with a solo home run during Monday's 2-1 win over the Tigers.

    Advice: Ramirez provided the go-ahead run in the sixth inning, tagging Jack Flaherty for a solo homer. Ramirez has now generated a home run in back-to-back games but is still trying to dig his way out of a slump. In his last 10 appearances, Ramirez is 5-for-35 (.143) with five RBI, five runs scored and no multi-hit games. Rotowire.com 54 minutes ago
