Jacob Latz, the unexpected lefty closer for the Texas Rangers, is stealing the show with electric performances—two wins, one loss, a 1.69 ERA, and 10 saves in 25 games. Once a swing starter battling injuries, he’s now the team’s go-to in high-leverage spots, earning All-Star buzz from teammates like Kumar Rocker. Manager Skip Schumaker knows he can’t overuse him, but Latz’s dominance is undeniable—and the baseball world is watching. Support the show: Get a discount at https://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
