Oakland Athletics

In Thursday’s game against the Astros, Oakland Athletics‘ offense was quick and to the point which helped them win after losing the first two games. Yet, in their first game against Texas, the Athletics lost 3-2 with Cole Irvin surrendering three earned runs in 5.9 innings. The Athletics will turn in James Kaprielian, who has given up 41 hits, 18 earned runs, and a 2.84 ERA. One of the better rookie majors this season, Kaprielian will be facing the rangers for the third time in more than two weeks and seems to be getting more confident each game.

Players to watch: M. Chapman 3B (GP 86, AB 300, R 40, H 69, 2B 10, 3B 3, HR 11, RBI 42, TB 118, BB 44, SO 106, SB 1, AVG 0.23, OBP 0.325, SLG 0.393, OPS 0.718, WAR 2.2), M. Olson 1B (GP 83, AB 300, R 55, H 85, 2B 19, 3B 0, HR 21, RBI 57, TB 167, BB 41, SO 58, SB 3, AVG 0.283, OBP 0.373, SLG 0.557, OPS 0.93, WAR 3).

Texas Rangers

In their game with the Tigers this week, the Rangers won one game but lost the other two. Jordan Lyle played 6.0 innings which had seven hits and two earned runs with one walk. This afternoon, Texas will be starting with Mike Foltynewicz, who is showing promise after a slow start. The Rangers seem to have placed a lot of trust in the 29-year-old despite his rough last season. Foltynewicz is still trying to prove himself and has shown his worth in his last three starts, two of which were quality starts. In 13 combined frames, he allowed just four runs. Despite their challenges, Texas still shows a lot of potential as three of their players, Kyle Gibson, Joey Gallo, and Adolis Garcia, have been selected for the All-Star game in Denver.

Players to watch: I. Kiner-Falefa 3B (GP 87, AB 350, R 44, H 91, 2B 15, 3B 2, HR 6, RBI 30, TB 128, BB 13, SO 61, SB 15, AVG 0.26, OBP 0.295, SLG 0.366, OPS 0.66, WAR 2.6), N. Lowe 1B (GP 86, AB 314, R 39, H 82, 2B 9, 3B 1, HR 12, RBI 43, TB 129, BB 45, SO 95, SB 4, AVG 0.261, OBP 0.355, SLG 0.411, OPS 0.766, WAR 1.1).
