Jacob Latz Limits the Brewers in Rangers' Victory
Jacob Latz worked 5 2/3 shutout innings against the mighty Milwaukee Brewers on Monday night to help the Rangers claim a 5-0 win in the series opener in Texas. Latz allowed just three hits and one walk while striking out four. The 29-year-old lefty improved to 2-0 in the majors with a 2.91 ERA and 3.71 FIP over his 29 games, which have mostly been out of the bullpen. He has made three straight starts for Texas, allowing only four total runs with a 2.35 ERA and 1.04 WHIP. His next start is scheduled for Sunday on the road in a tough matchup against the Mets, but that could be impacted by the return of Tyler Mahle. If he does stay in the rotation, he's worth a streaming or DFS look in the right matchup, since he has stepped up lately for the Rangers, who continue to battle for the AL Wild Card.
