The Texas Rangers are eyeing the AL West title during a seven-game, regular season-ending road trip that begins with a three-game set against the Los Angeles Angels.
Texas didn’t have to contend with Mike Trout the last time these two teams faced off and they won’t have to this time around either. Trout returned to the lineup on August 22 after missing nearly two months of action following a hamate bone fracture, but then immediately returned to the injured list with continued wrist complications.
Rendon’s initial injury happened on July 4 as he fouled a ball off his shin and left the game. The club announced it as a deep bone bruise. Rendon would later come out in an interview and state that he actually had a broken tibia. Manager Phil Nevin would later announce that Rendon would not return for the rest of the season.
The Angels, however, as they seemingly have done for so many years, have found ways to underperform while managing to keep two generational players out of the playoffs. Despite pinning their hopes of finally getting Trout and Ohtani to the postseason, they’ve tumbled to a 25-40 record in the second half and just 6-16 in September.Game 157: 8:38 PM CST - TBD vs. LHP Reid Detmers Jon Gray could use a good outing.
The Rangers had been able to use their final day off last Thursday to shuffle their rotation around, but the team will have to pull a starter from their bullpen for the second game of this series. This would have been Max Scherzer’s spot, but Cody Bradford may be called upon to make a spot start for Texas.
