BULLPEN FAILURE
Headed to a more competent location
Needless to say, there's not a lot to enjoy right now at the major league level. So let's enjoy a bright spot with our future:
30 pitching prospects off to blazing starts
Rangers: Jake Latz, LHP (unranked on Rangers Top 30)
Though Latz barely pitched in college at Louisiana State and Kent State because of elbow issues and NCAA transfer issues, the Rangers still selected him in the fifth round in 2017. They've brought him along carefully and he has succeeded with his 92-95 mph fastball and his slider, especially this year with a 1.96 ERA, .105 opponent average and 33/7 K/BB ratio in 23 Double-A innings.
