Struggles vs. Minnesota Rocker (2-6) was tagged with the loss Tuesday against the Twins after allowing seven runs (six earned) on seven hits, including two home runs, and two walks across 3.1 innings. He...

Impact The six earned runs allowed were a season-high mark for Rocker, who had given up two or fewer in five of his previous six outings. His inconsistencies on a game-to-game basis have hurt his upside, especially since he's not a pitcher who can rely on producing above-average strikeout rates or pitching deep into games. He owns a 4.17 ERA and 1.41 WHIP in 14 appearances (13 starts) and 69 innings in 2026. Rocker is tabbed to make his next start next week on the road against the Marlins.

Returns to action Smith started at second base and went 1-for-4 in Tuesday's 12-2 loss to the Twins.

Impact Smith started for the first time since being activated from the injured list Monday. A glute injury landed him on the IL in early May and was followed by a wrist issue and a case of viral meningitis. At the time of his injury -- when Smith was batting .217 with six RBI through 31 games -- his hold on the starting second base job was tenuous. Ezequiel Duran was making a push for more playing time and nothing has changed since. Lately, Duran has covered shortstop while Corey Seager (concussion) works his way back, but Smith is still in jeopardy of sliding back to a utility/part-time role.

Remains on schedule for return Walcott (elbow) will being to ramp up his activity soon and is still on track for a late-July, early-August return to a minor-league affiliate, Kennedi Landry of MLB.com reports.

Impact Walcott, who has played catch at moderate distances and swung off a tee while rehabbing in Arizona, was brought to Arlington over the weekend for a change of environment. His rehab from an internal brace procedure on his right elbow has gone according to plan. "I feel pretty good, I feel physical," Walcott said. "I'm looking forward to being back soon. The rehab has been going really smoothly, so I'm happy with that." Walcott's career left off at Double-A Frisco, for whom he played 124 games in 2025, and could rejoin the organization at Triple-A Round Rock when ready to return.
