The Texas Rangers begin a 19-game stretch against losing teams after winning a series against the San Francisco Giants. Corey Seager's return to form boosts expectations, hitting.412 in his last nine games, while Cody Bradford shines with four shutout innings after a lengthy injury absence. However, investor confidence wanes as ownership has halted spending, and Josh Jung remains sidelined due to a calf strain. The Rangers currently hold the No. 3 wild card spot, but competition remains tight with five teams close behind.
