7/23/25 In Texas Rangers' season full of surprises, Patrick Corbin might be the biggest one yet. What creates baseball's best starting rotation? Two high-profile rookies that've shown flashes of upside in Kumar Rocker and Jack Leiter do too. Be the smartest Rangers fan. Rangers left-handed pitcher Patrick Corbin — a 36-year-old whom the club signed at the end of March to provide insurance and depth — has been an undeniable asset to a rotation that remains the league's best more than halfway through the season.

7/08/25 Kumar Rocker's Emergence Gives Rangers Positive Outlook for Their Future. At some point in the coming weeks, the Texas Rangers will have to make a potentially franchise-altering decision. Since the 2023 season where they performed at the peak of their powers to win their first-ever World Series championship, it has been nothing but disappointment. Key players up and down the roster were placed on the shelf throughout the campaign, which made it difficult for the Rangers to ever get enough momentum to carry them back into the playoffs. Getting back pieces for future success is starting to feel like the smartest course of action barring a red-hot stretch that puts the Rangers firmly in the Wild Card picture before the July 31 trade deadline.

6/17/25 Texas Rangers Star Rookie Kumar Rocker Has Huge Task Ahead of Him in Return. The Texas Rangers got a huge return to the big leagues on this past Sunday night from their highly regarded rookie right-hander Kumar Rocker in a win over the Chicago White Sox. Powered by multiple shots of pickle juice and sheer determination to live up to the billing as one of the most highly regarded pitching prospects in baseball, Rocker brought his A-game to help his team to a sweep. Rocker tossed five scoreless innings and allowed just four hits and one walk with six strikeouts to earn the second victory of his career. Now that he is seemingly fully healthy and back in the big leagues, Rocker is stepping into a rotation which has had seemingly endless injuries this season.

6/04/25 Kumar Rocker's return to Texas Rangers rotation less than stellar in multiple ways. Kumar Rocker has returned to the Rangers rotation. After missing five weeks with a shoulder impingement, Rocker returned Wednesday and looked just like he did when he left. When last we saw Rocker, he was throwing really only two pitches and didn't make it through two innings. On Wednesday, in a 5-4 loss to Tampa Bay, the Rangers allowed him to start the fourth, but only because the third had been so rough that it made sense to simply let him stretch out his pitch count and potentially save some extra wear and tear on a bullpen that has worked more than 40 innings in the last two weeks.
