Rangers recalled RHP Luis Curvelo from Triple-A Round Rock.

The 25-year-old hurler will replace the injured Carter Baumler (oblique) in the Rangers’ bullpen. Curvelo made eight appearances for the Rangers during Cactus League play, posting a 4.15 ERA, 0.81 WHIP and a strong 12/1 K/BB ratio across 8 2/3 innings. He’ll function in a middle relief role initially, but could move to a high-leverage spot if he proves to be capable.

TJ Rumfield

COL 1st Baseman

TJ Rumfield hit a solo homer in a loss to the Dodgers on Monday.

Rumfield has gone deep three times in 2026, with this homer coming off Edgardo Henriquez in the eighth inning. The 25-year-old was a substitute for Tyler Freeman early in this contest, and he likely will see time in Freeman’s absence if necessary. There’s better fantasy options out there, even if so.

Dalton Rushing

LAD Catcher #68

Dalton Rushing hit two homers to help the Dodgers to a rout of the Padres on Monday.

Rushing is now tied for fourth in the National League in homers, and he’s had all of 27 at-bats. Efficiency. The 25-year-old took both Jose Quintana and Tanner Gordon deep in the contest, and he’s now slugging an unrealistic 1.296 in that aforementioned playing time. The 25-year-old is going to see playing time at first base, catcher and DH; and that just adds to the intrigue for 2026 and beyond.

Jose Quintana

COL Starting Pitcher #62

Jose Quintana was charged four six runs — four of them earned — over five innings to pick up a loss against the Dodgers on Monday.

The two earned runs also were Quintana’s doing, as he committed the error. The left-handed veteran allowed a pair of homers to Max Muncy and Dalton Rushing, with Rushing and Muncy homering again later in the contest off Tanner Gordon. Quintana was a tough sell as a fantasy pitcher because he doesn’t miss bats, but in Colorado? This is going to be untenable. He’ll take a 6.23 ERA into a start against the Mets on Saturday in New York.

Justin Wrobleski

LAD Starting Pitcher #70

Justin Wrobleski allowed one run over seven innings while picking up a win over the Rockies on Monday.

Wrobleski did strike out three, but he was fortunate to limit the damage to just one run. He allowed eight hits in the contest, and 12 balls off Colorado bats registered as hard contact. That’s 22 hard-hit balls allowed in his last two starts, and he’s allowed only one run in the process. The 25-year-old will look to keep the good run — and potentially, the good luck — going against the Cubs on Sunday.
