Sunday morning Rangers news and links

Sunday mornings just got a little brighter for Texas Rangers fans. After a rough patch on Friday, the Rangers bounced back in a big way, blanking the Chicago Cubs 6-0 last night. It was the kind of performance that reminds everyone why this team is worth watching—and wearing their gear with pride.

The star of the show? Rookie Justin Foscue, who crushed his first major league home run in the win. According to Evan Grant’s game story, Foscue’s blast symbolized a team-wide rebound from Friday’s ugliness. For a young player, that’s a moment to remember—and a jersey to snag before it becomes a collector’s item.

Not everyone had a perfect night, though. Jake Burger will sit out Saturday and Sunday as the Rangers try to shake him out of a current slump. Meanwhile, good news is on the horizon: reliever Chris Martin and infielder Josh Smith are both expected to start rehab assignments soon. That’s a boost for a bullpen that’s been holding its own.

Speaking of bounce-backs, Ezequiel Duran is making waves this year. His bond with assistant hitting coach Alex Cintron has fueled a noticeable improvement at the plate. Jeff Wilson even wrote about Duran defying the haters—yes, he means you—with his 2026 performance so far. It’s the kind of story that makes you want to rep his number on your next game-day tee.

Off the field, Rangers reliever Peyton Gray is drawing inspiration from his mother’s resilience as she battles cancer. It’s a reminder that the grit you see on the diamond often starts at home. And for deeper dives, David Laurila’s Sunday Notes column over at Fangraphs is a must-read for the stat-heads.

So whether you’re gearing up for today’s game or just catching up, the Rangers are giving us plenty of reasons to stay locked in. Who’s ready for some more Sunday baseball?
