Eovaldi, García headed to Seattle to give Rangers six All-StarsARLINGTON -- On Saturday afternoon, Nathan Eovaldi tossed seven shutout innings against Dusty Baker’s Astros, carrying the Rangers to a win...
Nathaniel Lowe - Homer and double in lossLowe went 2-for-3 with a two-run home run and a double in Sunday's 5-3 loss to the Astros.
ImpactLowe had hit a small rough patch by going 2-for-16 over his previous four games. His eighth-inning homer briefly got the Rangers within a run, snapping his 16-game power drought. The first baseman is up to nine long balls, 45 RBI, 53 runs scored, 22 doubles and a triple while slashing a steady .276/.369/.433 through 83 contests.

Andrew Heaney - Strikes out eight in no-decisionHeaney allowed three hits and a walk while striking out eight over five scoreless innings, taking a no-decision in Sunday's 5-3 loss to the Astros.
ImpactHeaney did his part to start the game, but the Rangers' bullpen was shaky over the final four frames. The veteran southpaw pitched to a 5.87 ERA over five starts in June following a strong end to May, so it was an encouraging first outing in July. Heaney has a 4.12 ERA, 1.28 WHIP and 89:35 K:BB through 83 innings across 16 starts this season. He's projected to face the Nationals on the road in his next start.

José Abreu - Raps out three hitsAbreu went 3-for-5 with a double and a run scored in Sunday's 5-3 win over the Rangers.
ImpactAbreu's hitting came around as he batted .292 in June, and after an 0-for-3 effort Saturday, he bounced back with Sunday's three-hit game. It's just his second three-hit effort of the year, the other being June 14 versus the Nationals. The first baseman is up to a .240/.291/.344 slash line with six home runs, 41 RBI, 26 runs scored and 14 doubles through 80 contests. Making more consistent contact is helping improve his line, but he's still lacking in the power department, though he has an extra-base hit in five of his last eight contests.
