First pitch is 6:40 PM ET on Monday, June 22, and both starters were still TBA as of the weekend. Whoever Bruce Bochy and Clayton McCullough end up sending out, the bigger story is the vibes — Texas is 1-4 in its last 5 and just got outscored 25-7 in a three-game home sweep by the Twins, while Miami pummeled Andrew Painter and the Phillies for 12 runs in the series finale on the 17th. Kyle Stowers is the name to know on the Marlins side. He went deep twice and drove in 5 in that Sunday blowout, and Miami at 37-38 is actually the team with the better record in this matchup. The Rangers, at 35-39, are now staring at a road trip without Corey Seager, who got placed on the 7-day concussion IL on the 15th — and that's on top of an outfield missing both Evan Carter and Michael Helman. The Rangers' injury list is the real headline coming into Tuesday's series opener. Seager, Carter, Helman, plus Danny Jansen behind the plate and Jordan Montgomery still on the 60-day — that's a lot of names not in the lineup card. Jalen Beeks just hit the 15-day IL too, so the bullpen is shorthanded right when the rotation needs cover. Miami isn't exactly healthy either. Eury Perez is finally on a Triple-A rehab assignment and Griffin Conine started his own rehab Tuesday, so there's at least light at the end of the tunnel. Janson Junk is still working his way back from the shin issue, but the Marlins' position-player core that just torched Philly is intact. That's more than Texas can say. Bottom line for Monday's opener: the Rangers are reeling, banged-up, and traveling, and the Marlins are home, hot, and feeling themselves after that 12-run weekend. The lines haven't posted yet, but you can probably guess which way the early money leans.
