Rangers Notes
Glenn Otto is set to make his eighth start of the season today. He has gone 2-1 with a 2.12 earned run average in 3 starts since surrendering a career-high eight runs (all earned) on May 14 vs. Boston and has cut his season ERA from 6.38 to 4.33. Otto has allowed two or fewer runs in six of his seven starts this season, and his three wins are tied for second best on the staff (Martín Pérez has four). He will work on regular rest after producing his second quality start of the season in Texas' homestand-opening 9-5 victory on Monday against Tampa Bay. In that game, Otto threw six innings, gave up two runs (one earned), walked three and struck out four on 99 pitches.
