Next start on short rest Foltynewicz is the expected starter for Thursday's game at Detroit, Joseph Hoyt of the Dallas Morning News reports.

Impact Foltynewicz, who was shelled in his previous start Sunday, will be working on short rest. Texas manager Chris Woodward considered a bullpen day but eventually landed on Foltynewicz as the starter for the series finale against the Tigers. Woodward said the starter will be on a limited pitch count due to the abbreviated rest schedule; Foltynewicz threw 42 pitches Sunday and was removed after 1.2 innings. This could be an important start for the right-hander. Woodward, whose team was shut out in three straight contests before scoring a run Tuesday night, has been vocal about his team's recent performance and for players to show more fight, per Jordan Horrobin of MLB.com.

Shelled in loss Foltynewicz (2-9) lost Sunday's 10-0 match with Toronto in the second game of a doubleheader, allowing 10 runs on eight hits and two walks in 1.2 innings.

Impact Foltynewicz endured his worst start all year, surrendering nearly as many home runs (4) as outs (5), and couldn't make it out of the second inning for the first time. Prior to Sunday's outing, he had allowed four runs or less in five straight starts and lowered his ERA to a still high 5.11, but it jumped back up 0.8 runs to 5.91 following the disaster appearance.

Logs no-decision Saturday Foltynewicz allowed three runs on five hits in 6.1 innings with six strikeouts against Oakland on Saturday. He did not factor into the decision.

Impact Foltynewicz had issues with the long ball, giving up back-to-back blasts to Sean Murphy and Seth Brown in the second inning and another by Jed Lowrie in the fourth. The 29-year-old Foltynewicz has been touched up for 24 home runs in 100.1 innings this season, with five of them coming over his last two starts. He'll go into the all-star break with a 2-8 record, a 5.11 ERA and a 1.27 WHIP.

Allows four runs in loss Foltynewicz (2-8) allowed four earned runs on four hits and one walk while striking out five across seven innings, taking the loss to the Mariners on Sunday.

Impact Although Foltynewicz outlasted opposing pitcher Chris Flexen, he allowed three more runs than him to take the loss. All four runs came on a pair of home runs in the third and fourth innings. The 29-year-old has struggled this season and has not received much run support from a bad offense. He carries a 5.17 ERA and a 1.30 WHIP, leading the Rangers in losses (8).

Earns first win since April Foltynewicz (2-7) allowed two runs on four hits and one walk while striking out six over seven innings to pick up the win over Oakland on Tuesday.

Impact Foltynewicz allowed a first-inning home run, but he settled in to give Texas hitters a chance to erase the lead and win for the first time since April 27, a span of 11 starts. Homers have been his bane in 2021; he's given up 19, which ranks tied for second in MLB. The Rangers have considered removing him from the rotation due to the frequency of long balls, but their replacement options are thin at this time. He'll look to build off Tuesday's success in his next projected start Sunday at Seattle.

Posts quality start Foltynewicz got the no-decision in Wednesday's 5-3 victory over Oakland, allowing two runs on six hits with five strikeouts in six innings.

Impact Foltynewicz was cruising through six innings, having allowed no runs on just 83 pitches, but ran into trouble when he surrendered a leadoff home run in the seventh followed by a double that ultimately got him the hook. It was the veteran righty's first quality start in nearly a month and he'll look for his first win since April against Oakland again next week.
