Leiter and Eovaldi Out for Rangers | Texas Rangers News

The Texas Rangers face a brutal pitching crunch as both Jack Leiter and Nathan Eovaldi sit sidelined with injuries, threatening their postseason push. Leiter, recovering from ankle surgery and now battling biceps soreness, is on pause again—no throws since late August—and may not return as a starter, with bullpen duty his only realistic option. Manager Skip Schumaker confirms he’s getting treatment in Arizona and likely won’t pitch for days. Meanwhile, Eovaldi, dealing with elbow issues since early August, also faces uncertainty; while he hopes to contribute in relief or even a few short starts, Schumaker doubts he’ll be able to handle more than a few innings. Both pitchers are focused on health over hype, but the Rangers’ playoff hopes hang in the balance without their ace duo.
