| Jakob Junis will open for the Rangers on Monday against the Diamondbacks. Ari Koslow Mon, May 11th | Anthony Banda struck out one batter over 1.1 scoreless innings to earn the save in Friday's 8-6 win over the Red Sox. Matthew Adam Sat, May 23rd | |
| Junis has yet to allow a run across eight innings this season and has converted a save in each of his last three appearances. The Rangers have been using a closer-by-committee approach, with Junis working his way to the front of that group. Bruno Mulé Mon, Apr 13th | The Dodgers traded Anthony Banda to the Twins for international bonus pool money. Ari Koslow Thu, Feb 12th | |
| Junis has now earned saves in back-to-back days for Texas, entering Tuesday's ninth inning against Seattle with a one-run lead. He allowed two base hits before recording two fly outs and a groundout to close it out. Bruno Mulé Wed, Apr 8th | The Los Angeles Dodgers designated Anthony Banda for assignment on Friday. Nicholas Rodriguez Fri, Feb 6th | |
| Junis recorded his second save of the season Monday against Seattle, retiring the heart of the Mariners' order in a four-pitch ninth inning. He got Cal Raleigh to ground out, hit Julio Rodríguez with a pitch, then induced a game-ending double play from Josh Naylor. Bruno Mulé Tue, Apr 7th | Anthony Banda avoided arbitration with the Los Angeles Dodgers and agreed to a $1.625 million contract in 2026. David Leisering Fri, Jan 9th | |
| Jakob Junis has signed a one-year contract with the Texas Rangers that also includes a mutual option for 2027. The deal will become official once the Rangers make a corresponding move to clear a space on the 40-man roster. David Leisering Sun, Jan 18th | ||
