deGrom’s Six-Inning Hope for Rangers | MLB News

Jacob deGrom is set to start for the Texas Rangers against the Nationals, with hopes he’ll pitch six innings—after exiting early last time due to triceps fatigue. A strong outing would give the bullpen a crucial lead, especially ahead of a tough series with the Angels. The Rangers’ relief corps, including rested arms Jacob Latz and Chase Silseth, are primed to cover any innings deGrom can’t finish. With key pitchers like Cal Quantrill, Robby Ahlstrom, and Tyler Alexander already used this week—and Jakob Junis ready for righty matchups—the bullpen’s depth gives them flexibility. Montgomery likely won’t pitch again, but Cole Winn and Peyton Gray could step in if needed, ensuring support no matter how far deGrom goes.
