4 years agoTexas Rangers starter Taylor Hearn allowed four runs against the Cleveland Indians on Sunday. Only one run was earned due to a poorly-timed error by second baseman Andy Ibanez. The southpaw struggled with his control and issued three walks and hit a batter. However, he allowed just two hits and struck out three batters. Opponents are hitting .214 against Hearn this spring but his K-BB of 3-3 in 7.2 innings does not lead to much confidence that he'll be an impact starter for the Rangers in 2021. Last season with the Rangers, he threw 17.1 innings out of the bullpen with a K-BB of 23-11. The club is desperate for starting pitching depth so Hearn will no doubt continue to get a long look this spring.--Marc Hulet - RotoBaller
