Bush will start Saturday's game against the Nationals.

EDGE Analysis

Bush pitched a scoreless inning with two strikeouts during Friday's contest, and he'll serve as the opener a day later. It's unclear if the Rangers have a primary pitcher in mind or if they'll employ a full bullpen game.

Bush allowed a hit and a walk while recording one strikeout in a scoreless frame as the opener in Friday's loss to the White Sox.

EDGE Analysis

Bush put the first two White Sox batters on base but escaped the jam unscathed. He lowered his season ERA to 4.03 with a 29:6 K:BB through 22.1 innings.

Bush will be the first pitcher on the mound in a bullpen game Friday against the White Sox.

EDGE Analysis

The Rangers were left scrambling after scheduled starter Glenn Otto landed on the COVID-19 injured list earlier in the day. Without another starter to turn to, they'll instead use several relievers. Bush will be the first one on the mound, but he's yet to record more than three outs in any appearance this season, so he's unlikely to make it far beyond that number this time around.

Bush allowed three runs on four hits over two-thirds of an inning, picking up a third blown save in Sunday's 6-5 extra-inning loss to the Mariners.

EDGE Analysis

Closer Joe Barlow threw 27 pitches over two consecutive days and was unavailable to close out a 5-2 Texas lead. The Rangers had already used reliable relievers Matt Moore and Dennis Santana to get them in position to close out a win, so Bush was the most likely option. He entered the contest having made six consecutive scoreless appearances following his previous blown save, but it unraveled quickly for the right-hander, who gave up four consecutive hits, including a Ty France home run and a two-run double to Eugenio Suarez.

Bush blew the save during Wednesday's 6-5 win over the Angels, allowing two runs on two hits and a walk with two strikeouts in one inning.

EDGE Analysis

With closer Joe Barlow sidelined, manger Chris Woodward turned to Bush who surrendered an Anthony Rendon double followed by a Jared Walsh homer to blow the save. It's the 36-year-old's second blown save and he now possesses a 4.40 ERA and 1.26 WHIP with 19 strikeouts in 14.1 innings.

Bush will start Wednesday's game against the Royals.

EDGE Analysis

Bush didn't pitch during Tuesday's victory and will serve as the opener Wednesday for the second time this season. The veteran right-hander has filled a versatile role for Texas early in 2022 with one save and three holds to go with a 4.09 ERA, 1.18 WHIP and 13:2 K:BB over 11 innings.

Bush (1-1) recorded one out during the ninth inning of Wednesday's 2-1 win over the Phillies, earning the win. He didn't register a walk or a strikeout.

EDGE Analysis

Bush replaced Matt Moore in the ninth inning with two outs and a runner on first. After pinch-runner Roman Quinn stole second base, Bush was able to retire Jean Segura -- the only batter he faced. The Rangers took a two-run lead in the top of the 10th and Joe Barlow was able to limit the damage in the bottom half of the inning, resulting in a one-batter win for the veteran Bush. The scoreless appearances snaps a run of four straight outings in which he allowed a run.

Bush (0-1) allowed two runs on one hit and a hit batsman while striking out one over the eighth inning, taking the loss Thursday against Astros.

EDGE Analysis

The teams were locked in a pitchers' duel, with the scored tied at one apiece entering the eighth. Bush has been an important late-inning asset for Texas, but after hitting a batter, the right-hander served up a two-run home run to Kyle Tucker. It was the fourth time in eight outings that the Bush allowed runs.

Bush allowed two hits and struck out one over a scoreless eighth inning in Monday's 6-2 win over the Astros.

EDGE Analysis

Bush, who earned a save Saturday, entered the game after the Rangers grabbed a 3-2 lead in the bottom of the seventh inning. He faced Houston's 4-5-6 batters, a sign that manager Chris Woodward will deploy late-game relievers based on which one he feels is better suited for a particular situation. Joe Barlow pitched the ninth after the Rangers plated another three runs, which made it a non-save situation.

Bush struck out one over a scoreless ninth inning to earn the save in Saturday's 2-0 win over the Athletics.

EDGE Analysis

Bush was efficient, throwing 12 strikes among his 15 pitches, to record the Rangers' first save of the season. It was just the second ninth-inning save opportunity for the team, and Bush was granted both. He got the call to close the game with three righty-batters due up in the ninth inning, although he dispatched one left-handed pinch hitter. Bush mixed his cutter, four-seamer and curveball, while averaging 97.3 mph on the fastball.
