Texas Rangers enter the final 11 games needing peak bullpen stamina and a surge from the lineup. The bullpen has shouldered heavy high-leverage work since the All-Star break, while the top-order has stumbled and Seager along with Semien remain sidelined, thinning the offense at a critical moment. A favorable stretch includes Miami and Minnesota, but the ultimate test is a closing run against Houston and Cleveland.

If García, Jung and Pederson heat up and Leiter proves he can eat innings, Texas can still chase a wild-card path. Fantasy managers should watch timelines for Seager and Semien and monitor bullpen usage late, as every win in this tight race compounds into playoff odds.

Dodgers bullpen collapse alarms fantasy managers as Los Angeles stumbles toward a possible wild-card path. A 6-5 loss to Philadelphia exposed an overtaxed relief corps, derailed by early homer exposure and late miscues, jeopardizing the bye that could reset their rotation and rest their arms. The plan to lean on Shohei Ohtani and a healthier Will Smith is urgent, while the front office’ inactivity at the deadline adds fear of deeper instability.

With only a dozen games left and a six-game gap to the Phillies, the postseason landscape tightens. The Dodgers must salvage the next series to avoid a brutal three-game wild-card sprint, especially given ongoing questions about bullpen solidity, catcher health, and rotation depth. Fantasy managers should watch bullpen roles, rotation tweaks, and the impact of this stretch on rest versus routine.
