Rangers News
The Texas Rangers fell to the Los Angeles Angels 9-6, as Jacob deGrom's struggles continued to haunt the team, showcasing that even aces have off nights. DeGrom's rocky outing overshadowed a noteworthy performance from Brandon Nimmo, who did his best to rally the team but couldn't prevent the loss. Despite showing flashes of life, like Ezequiel Duran's electrifying season, the Rangers' inconsistency is becoming a major concern as they hover just below .500 at 24-26. On a brighter note, the signing of veteran righty Joe Ross could provide much-needed depth in the minors, a sign the Rangers are still looking to bolster their pitching staff. With the upcoming games against the Angels, the Rangers will need to channel their competitive spirit and find a way to turn the tide.
