Back in majors The Rangers recalled Macko from Triple-A Round Rock on Saturday.

Impact Macko was sent down to the minors last Saturday but will be invited back into the Rangers' bullpen to make up for the loss of Michel Otanez (illness). Macko has turned in a 5.65 ERA and 1.71 WHIP across 28.2 innings in the majors this season and will almost certainly be limited to low-leverage work.

Impact Otanez was recalled from Triple-A on Friday, but he won't be able to pitch in the regular season now that he's landed on the injured list. He will be replaced in Texas' bullpen by Adam Macko.

Knocks in two in win Burger went 1-for-2 with two walks, two RBI and a run scored in Friday's 7-1 win over the Blue Jays.

Torrid postseason ends Friday Walcott went 2-for-5 with two stolen bases and one run cored in Double-A Frisco's loss Friday.

Impact The loss ended the RoughRiders postseason run, but Walcott was prominent in the three-game series. He went 4-for-11 with four walks, a solo home run and four streals. His regular season started late due to injury, but the Rangers' top prospect showed he's ready for a promotion to Triple-A Round Rock in 2027. Walcott posted a .329/.404/.608 slash line with 10 home runs, 14 doubles, 21 RBI, 12 steals and 48 runs scored over 39 regular-season contests, including two in the rookie-level Arizona Complex League.

Perfect at plate in win Langford went 2-for-2 with three walks, one RBI, two runs scored and a stolen base in Friday's 7-1 win over the Blue Jays.

Impact Langford was patient at the plate, scoring after drawing a walk and stealing second in the second inning before driving in a run on a bases-loaded walk in the sixth. It was a needed performance for the 24-year-old, who entered the game hitting just .153 over 15 September contests. On the year, he's slashing .242/.336/.435 with 17 homers, 41 RBI, 62 runs scored and 14 stolen bases across 438 plate appearances.

Limited again in no-decision Rocker did not factor into the decision in Friday's 7-1 win over the Blue Jays, allowing one run on three hits and two walks with two strikeouts over 4.1 innings.

Impact Rocker opened with four scoreless frames before allowing a run in the fifth, throwing 48 of 76 pitches for strikes with only six whiffs. It's clear the Rangers are being cautious with the 26-year-old down the stretch, as he hasn't reached the 80-pitch mark in any of his three September outings. He'll carry a 4.47 ERA, 1.42 WHIP and 134:59 K:BB across 143 innings this season into one final home matchup with the Mets next week.
