SURPRISE, Ariz. – Milwaukee’s lineup card was presented to umpires by a leprechaun Friday, or at least a bullpen catcher dressed as one, underscoring the...
said after a 4-3 loss to Milwaukee on Friday that had nothing to do with the starting pitching. “Knock on wood and all goes well, they can be dominant. We can match up with any staff.”Can’t blame you. This is, after all the Rangers. They came to Texas in 1972 when there were 24 teams in the majors. They rank last among those teams in starting rotation ERA since. Factor in expansion, which took the league to 30 teams by 1993 and they rank 29th. Pitching hasn’t exactly been their forte.
Afterward, he was breaking down his outing and, all of a sudden, he’s off talking about the Rangers’ starters in the same sentence with those in Houston and Philadelphia, you know, the two teams that played in the World Series last year. “The starters set the tone,” he said. “I think the offense gets excited when the pitching has been out there throwing up zeroes. They can breathe a little bit.”
Eovaldi is a different cat, too. He’s invested in this rotation. An example: He’s watched every starter’s outing this spring either in person or on video. On Thursday night, with his wife and kids in town, he eased into the hot tub at his rental home to relax … and watch Gray’s outing against the Dodgers on his phone.The starters have not given any indication they will beat themselves, which was a real issue for a strike-zone challenged staff in 2022.
