TYLER MAHLE NEWS

Moves to 60-day IL The Rangers transferred Mahle (shoulder) to the 60-day injured list Tuesday.

Impact Mahle was already ruled out for the rest of the season earlier in the month, so his move to the 60-day IL will simply create space on the 40-man roster for Matt Duffy, whose contract was selected from Triple-A on Tuesday. Mahle will celebrate his 30th birthday on Sunday, and he figures to be ready for the start of next season.

Rangers RHP Gray done for season with foot issue and Tyler Mahle also not expected to pitch again

Texas Rangers right-hander Jon Gray is done for the season after going on the injured list with a bothersome right foot issue

SEPTEMBER 4 • ASSOCIATED PRESS

Won't return in 2024 Manager Bruce Bochy said Tuesday that Mahle (shoulder) will not make another start this season, Jeff Wilson of AllDLLS.com reports.

Impact Mahle landed on the injured list Aug. 20 due to stiffness in his right shoulder, but there doesn't seem to be enough time left in the regular season for him to build back up. The 29-year-old right-hander will continue to play catch, however, so he's not being shut down entirely. He'll finish the year with seven earned runs allowed over 12.2 innings across only three starts, as he missed the first half of the season while recovering from Tommy John surgery.

SEPTEMBER 3 • ROTOWIRE

Officially placed on IL The Rangers placed Mahle on the 15-day injured list Tuesday with right shoulder tightness.

Impact Mahle allowed four earned runs over three inning during his most recent start Sunday. He'll now be forced to miss several turns through the rotation, as the Rangers have deemed his injury severe enough to warrant a trip to the injured list. Jon Gray (groin) was reinstated from the IL in a corresponding move and will act as Mahle's replacement in Texas' rotation.

Heading to IL Manager Bruce Bochy said Tuesday that the Rangers will place Mahle on the injured list with shoulder stiffness, Shawn McFarland of The Dallas Morning News reports.

Impact Mahle made his return from Tommy John surgery Aug. 6 and made three starts since, logging a 4.97 ERA in 12.2 innings. His most recent start ended after three innings and it appears he picked up an injury during the outing. The Rangers are expected to recall Jon Gray to fill Mahle's spot in the rotation.

AUGUST 20 • ROTOWIRE

Chased after three innings Mahle allowed four runs on six hits and struck out one without walking a batter over three innings in a no-decision versus the Twins on Sunday.

Impact Mahle struggled early, giving up three runs in the first inning to his former team. Ryan Jeffers had a two-run blast in that frame and an RBI single in the third, and Mahle was done at 61 pitches (41 strikes), making this the shortest of his three starts since he returned from Tommy John surgery. He's pitched to a 4.97 ERA, 1.42 WHIP and 10:4 K:BB over 12.2 innings in those appearances. He's tentatively projected for a road start in Cleveland in his next outing.

Fans seven in no-decision Mahle did not factor into the decision in Monday's loss to Boston, allowing two runs on three hits and three walks over 4.2 innings. He struck out seven.

Impact The Texas righty generated 15 whiffs en route to his seven punchouts, as he fired 92 pitches in this performance. However, Mahle did struggle with his control at times -- a hallmark of those returning from an elbow injury -- as he allowed three free passes against a patient Red Sox team that took walked nine times total in the contest. After his first 9.2 innings with the Rangers, Mahle's ERA now stands at 2.79 with 9:4 K:BB. He is scheduled to make his next start against the Twins at home this weekend.

Red Sox take 4-game losing streak into matchup against the Rangers

The Boston Red Sox aim to end their four-game losing streak when they take on the Texas Rangers

AUGUST 12 • ASSOCIATED PRESS

Out-dueled in 2024 debut Mahle (0-1) took the loss Tuesday as the Rangers were downed 4-2 by the Astros, allowing one run on five hits and a walk over five innings. He struck out two.

Impact Making his season debut after completing his recovery from Tommy John surgery, Mahle tossed an efficient 76 pitches (49 strikes) but had the misfortune of facing Framber Valdez, who took a no-hitter into the ninth inning. Mahle should fill a rotation spot for Texas the rest of the way in 2024, and he should get stretched out further in his next outing, which lines up to come on the road early next week in Boston.

Tyler Mahle looks sharp in Texas Rangers debut, return from Tommy John Mahle gave the Rangers five innings of one-run baseball, allowing just five hits and walking just one batter.

AUGUST 7 • DALLASNEWS.COM

Officially activated The Rangers reinstated Mahle (elbow) from the 60-day injured list to start Tuesday's game against the Astros.

Impact Mahle will make his 2024 debut Tuesday and his first MLB appearance since undergoing Tommy John surgery in May of 2023. The right-hander threw 74 pitches in his most latest minor-league rehab start and shouldn't face and significant workload restrictions Tuesday. In six rehab starts, Mahle allowed five runs in 18 innings with 18 strikeouts.

AUGUST 6 • ROTOWIRE

Set for team debut Tuesday The Rangers will reinstate Mahle (elbow) from the 60-day injured list and have him start Tuesday's game against the Astros in Arlington, Bally Sports Southwest reports.

Impact The transaction will be made official later Tuesday, when the Rangers will also announce a corresponding 40-man roster move. After completing his recovery from May 2023 Tommy John surgery, Mahle will be making his Rangers and season debuts Tuesday. The right-hander gradually got stretched out over the course of six rehab starts, most recently tossing 4.2 innings and 74 pitches this past Wednesday with Triple-A Round Rock. The return of Mahle should bolster the back end of a Texas rotation that's currently three of its top contributors in Jacob deGrom (elbow), Max Scherzer (shoulder) and Jon Gray (groin).

Builds up to 74 pitches Mahle (elbow) struck out four over 4.2 innings and gave up two earned runs on three hits and one walk in his rehab start Wednesday with Triple-A Round Rock.

Impact Making what could be his sixth and final rehab start before being activated from the 60-day injured list, Mahle tossed 74 pitches (48 strikes) and sported a four-seam fastball that sat around 92 and 93 miles per hour for most of the night before dipping into the upper 80s in the fourth and fifth innings. Though Mahle's most recent two rehab starts weren't as sharp as his first four, he's likely done enough to prove that he's healthy again coming off Tommy John surgery and ready to join the big-league rotation. Mahle, who signed a two-year, $22 million contract this winter, could make his Rangers debut as soon as Monday versus the Astros in Arlington.

AUGUST 1 • ROTOWIRE

Works four innings in rehab start Mahle (elbow) struck out three and allowed three earned runs on three hits and one walk over four innings in his rehab start Thursday with Double-A Frisco.

Impact Mahle tossed 55 pitches (34 strikes) in the outing, his second with Frisco and the fifth overall of his minor-league rehab assignment. Over those five starts, Mahle has turned in a 2.03 ERA, 0.83 WHIP and 14:3 K:BB in 13.1 innings, and his fastball velocity has mostly sat in the lower 90s -- right in line with his readings from before he underwent Tommy John surgery last May. Mahle will likely look to push up his pitch count to the 60-to-70 range his next time out Wednesday with Triple-A Round Rock in what could be his final minor-league outing before he returns from the 60-day injured list. Texas has an off day coming up Thursday and could be able to get by with a four-man rotation this week before Mahle potentially returns from the IL to make his Rangers debut Aug. 5 against the Astros. The Rangers will have a spot open for Mahle in the rotation after trading Michael Lorenzen to the Royals on Monday.

JULY 29 • ROTOWIRE

Double-A bound for next rehab start Mahle (elbow) is scheduled to make the fifth start of his rehab assignment Thursday with Double-A Frisco.

Impact Mahle has yet to allow a run and has struck out 11 batters over 9.1 innings over the first four starts of his rehab assignment, which has included stops at Double-A, Triple-A Round Rock and the rookie-level Arizona Complex League. The 29-year-old has been building up his pitch count slowly as he makes his way back from Tommy John surgery, as he tossed 46 pitches and 2.2 innings in his most recent outing for Round Rock this past Saturday. Mahle will likely need to push his pitch count in the 65-to-80 range before the Rangers are comfortable bringing him back from the 60-day injured list and slotting him into the big-league rotation.

JULY 25 • ROTOWIRE

Set for another rehab start Mahle (elbow) will make his next rehab start Thursday with Double-A Frisco, Shawn McFarland of The Dallas Morning News reports.

Impact Mahle made the fourth start of his rehab assignment with Triple-A Round Rock on Saturday, tossing 2.2 scoreless innings while striking out three and allowing two hits and one walk. The 29-year-old right-hander continues to build up his pitch count while he works his way back from May 2023 Tommy John surgery, and he could be ready to return from the 60-day injured list in early August.

JULY 22 • ROTOWIRE

Set for another rehab start Mahle (elbow) will pitch for Double-A Frisco later this week, Kennedi Landry of MLB.com reports.

Impact In his last rehab outing with Triple-A Round Rock on Saturday, Mahle pitched 2.2 scoreless innings, allowing two hits and one walk while striking out three. The 29-year-old right-hander continues to work his way back from Tommy John surgery from May of 2023, and he could be back with the big club in early August barring any setbacks.

Throwing for Round Rock Mahle (elbow) is scheduled to make a rehab start with Triple-A Round Rock on Saturday, Shawn McFarland of The Dallas Morning News reports.

Impact Mahle has bounced around during his minor-league rehab assignment, making an appearance with Round Rock, Double-A Frisco and the Rangers' Arizona Complex League affiliate. He'll return to round rock for his fourth outing after completing 2.2 innings in his previous start. Mahle's recovery from Tommy John surgery is close to complete, and he could be back with the Rangers in early August.

Strikes out five in ACL start Mahle (elbow) struck out five and allowed one hit and one walk over 2.2 scoreless innings during his rehab start Monday in the rookie-level Arizona Complex League.

Impact Mahle had made his previous two rehab starts at Double-A Frisco, but he shifted his assignment to the ACL this week while all of the Rangers' full-season affiliates are off due to the All-Star break. The right-hander has looked strong thus far in his first three minor-league outings coming back from his May 2023 Tommy John surgery. He has yet to let in a run over 6.2 innings and built his pitch count up to 45 on Monday. Mahle will likely shift his assignment back to a higher-level affiliate over the weekend and will presumably need at least two or three more minor-league outings to get fully stretched out before he becomes a realistic option for the Rangers rotation.
