Rangers option Winston Santos to Triple-A

Winston Santos

TEX Starting Pitcher #84

Player Stats

Rangers optioned RHP Winston Santos to Triple-A Round Rock.

Santos, 24, made just one appearance during his time with the Rangers, allowing two runs on two hits and a walk while recording one strikeout in his two innings of work. He’ll continue to hone his craft at the Triple-A level until another opportunity arises with the Rangers.

Rangers recalled RHP Winston Santos from Triple-A Round Rock

Santos has allowed two runs on two hits in two innings in his only appearance for Texas this season. The 24-year-old has a 7.16 ERA in 55 1/3 innings mostly as a starter in Triple-A.

Rangers recalled RHP Winston Santos from Double-A Frisco

Santos is the Rangers’ fifth-ranked prospect, but the 24-year0old has struggled at Double-A this season, posting a 7.44 ERA and 1.77 WHIP in 42 1/3 innings. That comes with 58 strikeouts but also 21 walks. It remains to be seen what role Texas has in mind for him, but he has not made one appearance out of the bullpen since 2023.
Emiliano Teodo

TEX Pitcher #82

Rangers optioned RHP Emiliano Teodo to Triple-A Round Rock and RHP Winston Santos to Double-A Frisco; reassigned RHP Nabil Crismatt, RHP Declan Cronin, OF Trevor Hauver to minor league camp.

Teodo is coming off a disappointing 2025 season where he dealt with injury and an inability to throw strikes, but he has an electric arm and could help Texas before the end of 2026. Crismatt likely has an opt-out, so he’ll have a choice to either report to Triple-A or elect free agency.
Walter Pennington

TEX Relief Pitcher #52

Rangers optioned LHPs Walter Pennington, LHP Jacob Latz and RHP Cole Winn to Triple-A Round Rock; optioned RHP Winston Santos to Double-A Frisco; reassigned 1B Blaine Crim, OF Cody Thomas, LHP Michael Plassmeyer, LHP Robby Ahlstrom and RHP Nolan Hoffman to minor league camp.

Pennington, 26, did a decent job in 16 appearances at the big league level in 2024 — posting a 3.00 ERA, 1.67 WHIP and a 17/11 K/BB ratio over 18 innings — so it’s a bit surprising to see him sent out so early when there are still unsettled spots in the Rangers’ bullpen. He’ll probably get an opportunity to pitch for the Rangers at some point during the upcoming 2025 season.

Jesús Luzardo pitched four-hit ball for eight innings Tuesday in the Phillies’ 5-0 shutout of the Nationals.

Luzardo allowed one or no runs for the sixth time in seven starts and the 12th time this season. He’s probably about due to go on one of those runs in which he allowed six runs in three of four outings, but through 23 starts this year, he’s 10-5 with a 3.36 ERA and 164 strikeouts, which ranks sixth in the majors. He’ll face the Blue Jays on Sunday.

Zack Littell gave up four runs in 6 2/3 innings against the Phillies after replacing Carson Palmquist in the first innings Tuesday.

Palmquist flopped as an opener, retiring just one of the four batters he faced, and the Nationals never made a game of it after Littell entered. The loss went to Palmquist, so Littell remains 7-8 with a 4.97 ERA. He’ll face the Reds on Sunday.

Luis Arraez went 2-for-4 with a double and two RBI from the cleanup spot in his Phillies debut Tuesday against the Nationals.

Perfect. This is what cleanup Arraez was always supposed to do and always why Arraez was also supposed to bat cleanup. He’s not an OBP guy while hitting singles or doubles every third at-bat. He’s an RBI guy.

Trea Turner finished 3-for-4 with an RBI and two runs scored Tuesday against the Nationals.

Turner has 11 hits in his last six games to raise his average to .252. We’re not testing any theories here, but his average hadn’t been this high since he went 0-for-4 on 4/20.

Caleb Durbin went 2-for-3 with his first career grand slam, a walk and a steal as the Red Sox crushed the White Sox 14-2 on Tuesday.

Durbin has 11 homers and 13 steals on the year, so a 20/20 season is in play in spite of his rough start. He’s up to .247/.318/.405 in 392 plate appearances, and he’s probably the favorite to claim the American League Gold Glove at third base.

Patrick Sandoval got his first win of the year after allowing two runs in five innings Tuesday against the Red Sox.

It’s the first win credited to Sandoval, but the Red Sox have gone 5-0 in his starts since he was activated last month, with Sandoval amassing a 3.38 ERA and a 25/10 K/BB in 24 innings. He has another kind matchup coming up against the A’s at home on Sunday.

Brayan Bello recorded his first career save for pitching three perfect innings against the White Sox on Tuesday.

Bello needed just 28 pitches to get nine outs to finish off a 14-2 game. He’s certainly making a case for getting more work in close games while having allowed only one run in 16 2/3 innings over four appearances since returning to the majors on July 12. But at least he’s taking some pressure off Boston’s bullpen as is.

Davis Martin was lit up for nine runs in five-plus innings by the Red Sox on Tuesday.

That’s more runs than he allowed in six starts in March and April (eight in 37 innings) or in five starts in May (seven in 30 2/3 innings). Martin opened the year 8-1 with a 2.00 ERA, but since the beginning of June, he’s 1-5 with a 6.79 ERA. His peripherals aren’t as bad as his ERA, so maybe he deserves to keep his rotation spot for now. He’s on thin ice, though. He’ll face the Guardians on Sunday.

Wilyer Abreu hit his 18th and 19th homers Tuesday in the rout of the White Sox.

Abreu has eight homers and three two-homer games in 18 games since the break, even though he’s batting just .200 during the span (14-for-70). He’s three homers away from matching last year’s total, which seems good, but then he’s already had 71 more plate appearances than he did then, since he’s avoided the IL and he’s starting regularly against lefties.
