Joe Barlow Stats

Texas Rangers relief pitcher Joe Barlow has been surprisingly solid in a late-inning role. On Tuesday, Barlow protected a three-run lead and helped his team get the 5-2 win over the Los Angeles Angels. The 26-year-old has now converted 10 of 11 save chances with the Rangers this season. It's unknown what the team plans to do this offseason in terms of the bullpen. However, Barlow certainly deserves a chance to compete for the closer role in 2022.

Texas Rangers relief pitcher Joe Barlow was able to notch his fifth save of the season during Saturday's game against the Oakland Athletics. The Rangers' bats came alive late, which gave Barlow a chance to shut the door in the ninth. He threw a scoreless inning and helped secure the 8-6 win. The 25-year-old is posting a 1.66 ERA, 0.92 WHIP and 21/10 K/BB ratio in 23 appearances with the Rangers this season. It's a small sample size, but he has looked good for Texas. Fantasy managers in need of saves might want to look his way down the stretch. Although, the Rangers don't do a ton of winning these days, but they did on Saturday.

Texas Rangers relief pitcher Joe Barlow was unable to shut the door against the Colorado Rockies on Wednesday. He wasn't even able to get through an inning before allowing five runs (two earned) with two walks in the 9-5 loss. It was partly Barlow's fault for walking two batters, but after that the Rangers defense fell apart. Let's be honest, the Rangers aren't playing for anything, so they'll probably continue to ride with Barlow. However, he could have a shorter leash going forward.
