The home portion of the Texas Rangers’ 2025 schedule comes to an end on Thursday with a matinee against the Minnesota Twins.

The Rangers have been eliminated from postseason contention. Their trip to Cleveland to wrap up the season will be little more than performative. The Guardians need the wins more than the Rangers, as they’re fighting to win the AL Central or make the wild card playoffs. The Rangers will miss the playoffs for the second straight year and unlike a year ago there is no championship glow to lean into. There must be changes this offseason.

Here is the entire preview for the game, with probable pitchers, how to watch and listen, injury updates and more.

Thursday’s Probable Pitchers

Kevin Jairaj-Imagn Images

Rangers: RHP Tyler Mahle (6-3, 2.20)

This will be Mahle’s last start of the season and it could be his last start with the Rangers as he is a free agent after the season. He’s done enough to get the Rangers interested in bringing him back, but he’ll have other suitors that could drive up the price. He missed three months with right shoulder fatigue, and his injury history will be a red flag. In his first start back last week he gave up four hits and no runs in 4.2 innings against the Miami Marlins.

Twins: RHP Bailey Ober (5-9, 5.32)

Ober is wrapping up his fifth season with the Twins and has a 30-30 career record with the franchise. He’s lost his last two starts, with the most recent against Cleveland, as he gave up eight hits and six earned runs in five innings. It’s been a rough year for the reliable right-hander. Notably, batters are hitting a career worst .280 against him after he allowed them to hit just .208 against him in 2024.
