Cody Bradford - Fans eight in no-decision Bradford came away with a no-decision in Saturday's 3-2 win over the A's, giving up two runs on four hits over seven innings. He struck out eight without walking a batter.
Impact The southpaw reeled off his fourth straight quality start on 97 pitches (68 strikes), but Bradford left the mound with the score tied 2-2 before Leody Taveras walked it off with a single in the bottom of the ninth. Bradford posted an impressive 3.12 ERA, 0.92 WHIP and 33:5 K:BB through 34.2 innings in August, but he had just one win to show for his efforts. The Rangers expect to get Jacob deGrom (elbow) and Tyler Mahle (shoulder) back in September, and potentially even Max Scherzer (shoulder) too, but it's hard to imagine Bradford moving back to the bullpen given his current form. He lines up to make his next start at home next weekend against the Angels.

Walter Pennington - Will open Sunday Pennington will draw the start for Sunday's series finale against Athletics, Shawn McFarland of The Dallas Morning News reports.
Impact Despite having just four minor-league starts under his belt over the past three seasons, Pennington will get his first major-league start Sunday. He's pitched more than one inning twice across his seven outings with the Rangers this season, with the last instance coming Aug. 23 against the Guardians when he threw three innings and allowed two runs (one earned) on four hits and two walks while striking out three. Jose Urena and Chase Anderson are the top candidates to serve in bulk relief, though the former tossed four scoreless innings Wednesday against the White Sox.
