Hyeon-jong Yang - Could start Wednesday Yang is expected to be the Rangers' primary pitcher against the Yankees, though whether he starts or follows an opener remains to be seen, Levi Weaver of The Athletic reports.
Impact Yang didn't make much of a splash this winter, joining the Rangers on a minor-league deal following a down season in Korea and failing to win an Opening Day roster spot. He was called up in late April and has been competent when called upon, posting a 3.38 ERA and 1.13 WHIP in 16 innings of work, though a .222 BABIP and 87.0 percent strand rate suggest he's gotten a bit lucky. His 4.88 FIP and 4.70 xFIP indicate he's probably a back-end starter at best, though that could be good enough for a regular role on a Rangers team that lacks established talent in the rotation.

Joey Gallo and the terrible, horrible… kinda good, actually not bad season Gallo has been somewhat duplicitous in his approach this season, so let's break it into two parts and take a look.

Chas McCormick - Delivers insurance runs McCormick went 1-for-3 with a walk, two RBI and a run scored in Sunday's 6-2 win over the Rangers.
Impact McCormick had a bases-loaded single as part of a four-run, eighth-inning uprising that seized the lead and secured the win. The backup outfielder got a rare start, playing left field in place of Michael Brantley, who served as the designated hitter Sunday. Aledmys Diaz is usually the first choice to back up at corner outfield, but the Astros need to keep McCormick fresh, so he was given the start Sunday. He's batting .176 with a .668 OPS over 39 plate appearances.

Enoli Paredes - Used immediately upon activation Paredes allowed one hit and struck out two over a scoreless ninth inning in Sunday's 6-2 win over Texas.
Impact Paredes was activated off the injured list earlier in the day after Houston placed starter Jose Urquidy (shoulder) on the IL. Paredes is a hard-throwing reliever that struck out nine of 15 batters faced while on rehab assignment. The right-hander has a high-90s fastball that he complements two breaking pitches and used all of them Sunday.
