Thrives in bulk relief
Rocker took a no-decision Monday against the Marlins, allowing two runs on five hits and no walks in five innings of relief. He struck out nine.
Analyse
The Rangers have now deployed Rocker behind an opener twice this season, and the results so far have been promising to say the least. The 26-year-old right-hander twirled 7.2 shutout innings the last time he worked as a reliever during his May 19 outing, and he fanned a season-high nine Monday. It would make sense for Texas to use Rocker in long relief out of the bullpen once again this weekend in Toronto, where he'll try to further improve on a 4.14 ERA, 1.38 WHIP and 65:30 K:BB across 74 innings.

Will follow opener Monday
Rocker will serve in a bulk-relief role for the Rangers during Monday's game against the Marlins, Kennedi Landry of MLB.com reports.
Analyse
Rocker's best outing this season came as a bulk reliever May 19 in Colorado, when he struck out seven over 7.2 shutout innings. Tyler Alexander was the opener in that contest, and the Rangers will work with the same setup Monday as Alexander takes the ball first in the series lid-lifter.

Struggles vs. Minnesota
Rocker (2-6) was tagged with the loss Tuesday against the Twins after allowing seven runs (six earned) on seven hits -- including two home runs -- and two walks across 3.1 innings. He struck out four.
Analyse
The six earned runs allowed established a new season-high mark for Rocker, who had given up two or fewer in five of his previous six outings. His inconsistencies on a game-to-game basis have hurt his appeal, as he's not a pitcher who can produce above-average strikeout rates or regularly pitch deep into games. He owns a 4.17 ERA and 1.41 WHIP in 14 appearances (13 starts) and 69 innings in 2026. Rocker is in line to make his next start next week on the road against the Marlins.
