🎥 Thelwell outlines his Rangers vision as Martin's reign begins
A summer of change highlights the blue half of Glasgow as Scottish giants Rangers welcome two new faces to Ibrox. Former Southampton manager Russell Martin will now patrol the touchline at the storied ground, while Kevin Thelwell sits above him as the new Sporting Director. Advertisement And for the first time since his arrival, Thelwell sat down to discuss his vision for the club with RangersTV as the club looks to switch gears in the hope of once again properly challenging bitter rivals Celtic at the top of the SPL. "The first week has been great," he said. "It's been busy, as you can imagine, and there's been a lot of work to do." "There have been a lot of opportunities to visit Ibrox and the training facilities, begin talking to people, and of course, we appointed a new Head Coach." "We've had a bit going on, but it's nice to, at last, get my feet under the table. I'm very much looking forward to working ahead." Advertisement On his decision to come aboard at Ibrox, Thelwell could not be more sure when it comes to taking up his new role. "It was an easy decision. Rangers are a huge football club and I've been very lucky on many occasions to be able to visit here as part of scouting and recruitment." "For me, it's an incredible football club and an incredible opportunity." "Our reality is that we've been in a low moment for a little while, but the opportunity to flip that ship is worth fighting for, which I'm very much looking forward to." As his first key decision, Thelwell was heavily involved in appointing Martin; one which he has full confidence in. Advertisement "I listened to Russell in his [unveiling] press conference and he's right: we're all going to be all in to get Rangers into a spot whereby we start to win again." "Right from the very start, it was clear to me, and the other guys involved in the process, that Russell was the standout candidate. He was outstanding." "He has a lot of experience as a manager and head coach, and over the course of that career it's been clear to see that he's sharpened that approach in his methods, in terms of technical, tactical, and also from a personal perspective." It's still very early days as the club looks to course-correct, but signs of positivity are evident and glaring. 📸 Richard Heathcote - 2024 Getty Images

Rays score 3 in 9th inning to rally for 4-3 win over Rangers
TAMPA, Fla. — Taylor Walls hit a two-run single to second baseman Marcus Semien in the ninth inning and the Tampa Bay Rays rallied to beat the Texas Rangers 4-3 on Thursday night. Junior Caminero, who homered off Jack Leiter in the second inning, had an RBI single against Robert Garcia (1-3) to pull the Rays to 3-2 earlier in the ninth. After Jake Mangum flied out for the second out, Christopher Morel singled to load the bases. Walls then hit a grounder to Semien, but no one was covering first base and Caminero came around to score from second for the winning run. It marked the second straight night the Rays won on a defensive miscue. On Wednesday night, Tampa Bay took advantage of Rangers pitcher Kumar Rocker forgetting to cover first base to score a run and then scored another when Rocker then held the ball as Jonathan Aranda scored from second. Semien had two solo homers and Jake Burger also went deep for the Rangers. Cole Sluser (3-1) picked up the win with a scoreless ninth inning for the Rays. With two outs in the ninth, Morel singled on a ground ball to third baseman Josh Jung, who bobbled the ball with Morel racing to first to beat out the play and keep the inning going. Ryan Pepiot allowed two runs and three hits over six innings. Burger's hoer in the third snapped Pepiot's 20-inning scoreless streak, the second-longest active streak in the majors behind teammate Drew Rasmussen's 23 innings. Pepiot also gave up a homer to Semien in the fifth. Rays RHP Zack Littell (5-5, 3.86 ERA) stars against Marlins RHP Edward Cabrera (2-1, 4.14) in the teams' series opener on Friday in Tampa. Rangers RHP Patrick Corbin (3-4, 3.71) faces Nationals RHP Michael Soroka (2-3, 5.81) in the series opener at Washington. ___ AP MLB:

Rangers' Jacob deGrom injury scare is ‘something to monitor'
The post Rangers' Jacob deGrom injury scare is 'something to monitor' appeared first on ClutchPoints. On Sunday afternoon, the Texas Rangers hit the diamond for the final game of their home series vs the St. Louis Cardinals. The two teams split the first two games of the matchup, giving the Rangers an opportunity to win the series on Sunday. Advertisement Superstar pitcher Jacob deGrom was on the mound for the Rangers in Game 3, and he had a brief injury scare in the first inning, as reported by Kennedi Landry of 'Jacob deGrom issues a leadoff walk to Lars Nootbaar and then two more balls to Masyn Winn. He gets a brief visit from a trainer, Mike Maddux and Bruce Bochy,' she reported on X, formerly Twitter. 'He stays in the game. Winn grounds out. Something to monitor,' she added to the end of her report. deGrom ended up giving up one run in the top of the first inning but was otherwise able to minimize the damage. deGrom signed with the Rangers prior to the 2023 season for a lucrative five-year contract after spending the opening portion of his career with the New York Mets. Injuries have been a major concern for deGrom during his time with Texas–in fact, deGrom was out of the lineup following Tommy John surgery while his team went on to win the 2023 World Series championship. Advertisement Still, when he's healthy, deGrom remains one of the best pitchers in the game at the age of 36. The Rangers haven't gotten off to the start they were hoping for this year, currently sitting at 28-31 heading into Sunday afternoon's contest. However, there is hope that things will be able to get turned around sooner rather than later. Following the conclusion of the series vs the Cardinals, the Rangers will have a day off before hitting the road for a matchup with the Tampa Bay Rays beginning on Tuesday evening.
