In 2023, the Texas Rangers won their first-ever World Series title by defeating the Arizona Diamondbacks, riding a wave of momentum. However, this season has presented more challenges for the defending champs. Jordan Shusterman and MLB.com Rangers beat reporter Kennedi Landry discuss the struggles the team has faced this season, including the case for Josh Smith to make the American League All-Star Game squad and rookie Wyatt Langford’s recovery from an injury earlier in the season.
Additionally, on this episode of the Baseball Bar-B-Cast, Jordan and Kennedi make their picks for The Good, The Bad, and The Uggla of the week. They discuss a bat boy saving Shohei Ohtani from a foul ball, an unfortunate play at the plate involving the Oakland Athletics, and the New York Yankees’ recent struggles. They also preview the weekend schedule of games, which includes six “mopportunities.”
The discussion covers how the Rangers have reached their current point, the standout performance of Josh Smith, injury timeliness for returning pitchers, and the highlights and lowlights of MLB games from the past week. Fans can follow the show on @CespedesBBQ, Jake @Jake_Mintz, and Jordan @J_Shusterman_.
