The Texas Rangers are the hottest team in MLB. The St. Louis Cardinals are ready to hit the reset button. Perhaps there's a deal to be worked out.

I t is literally impossible for me to hear the name of the Major League Baseball Texas Rangers and not think of Walker, Texas Ranger. It was one of the first TV shows that I remember my parents actually letting me stay up to watch past my bedtime. I can still hear the theme song rolling through my head, so for your enjoyment, here it is.

In 2025, Detroit Tigers reliever Luke Jackson has posted a 4.11 ERA with 19 walks and 24 strikeouts across 35 innings in 39 games for the Texas Rangers.

Outstanding pitching and the Texas Rangers, historically, are not two things that go together. But this Rangers pitching staff is writing their own narrative.

Rangers veteran All-Star second baseman Marcus Semien made it clear when he addressed what this deadline means. "I want to be adding at the deadline," Semien said in the Rangers clubhouse after a recent game. "I always want to make that a goal of mine: To make sure I'm on a team that is adding at the deadline."

Just this past month, the Rangers broke out their red hats for the first time this year vs. the Mariners. The red hats were the club’s only hats for its first three playoff seasons and a regular part of the rotation in the 2010-11 World Series runs.

Marcus Semien was hit in the head by a pitch, stayed in the game and then walked off Saturday’s game for the Texas Rangers.

Marcus Semien hit an RBI single in the 10th inning and the Texas Rangers beat the Atlanta Braves 6-5 on Saturday night, seven innings after the second baseman took a 94.6 mph fastball to the helmet.
