| 4/16/25 | Kumar Rocker is set to approach critical Texas Rangers start with immediate, clear goal. As Kumar Rocker approaches what could be a critical start in determining if the team goes forward with him in the rotation or needs to consider a refinement program in the minors, the immediate goal is clear: Diversify the repertoire. In his three starts to date, Rocker, who faces the Angels on Thursday, hasn't really identified a third pitch to keep hitters off balance. Rocker has delivered just 16 changeups among the 219 pitches he's thrown in his first three starts. Against Seattle, Rocker struggled to find something to keep the Mariners off his sinker. He experimented more heavily with a curveball, but veered away from his slider, shaking off catcher Jonah Heim on several occasions when it was originally called.

| 4/13/25 | What led to strange detour in Kumar Rocker's latest start? Rangers right-hander explains. Kumar Rocker's Saturday start took a strange detour, veering away from his hard slider and to a slower curve. Rocker threw only four sliders, typically his second offering, and only one of them in the first two innings. Perhaps even more strange was this: The one slider he threw in the first inning netted him a strikeout on a swing and miss. “The curve was what was landing,” Rocker said.

In the bottom of the ninth, Josh Smith hustled his way to a two-out double and Jonah Heim stepped up to the plate. Facing a 0-1 count, the Rangers' catcher sent an 89 mph cutter back up the middle, scoring Smith and securing the Rangers' eighth win of the season in walk-off fashion.

| 3/23/25 | Texas Rangers top prospects: Bahamian phenom Sebastian Walcott claims No. 1 spot. In a recent rundown of talent in major league farm systems, ESPN's Kiley McDaniel picked a provocative word to describe the Texas Rangers organization: Volatile. In short, McDaniel said there didn't seem to be a lot of certainty to the talent, which he ranked 16th among all MLB organizations. There were a lot of potential big hits (Kumar Rocker, Jack Leiter, Sebastian Walcott), but just as many potential misses. What's perhaps more troubling is that among the major outlets that rank organizational talent, ESPN had the Rangers' system higher than others.
