From Evan Grant:
“Rangers have acquired LHP Kolton Ingram on waiver claim from NY Mets. 27-year-old pitched briefly with LAA in 2022. He’s averaged 11Ks/9IP in minors, but 4.1 BBs.
If I’m wondering, I’d say this is a Brock Burke replacement in org. My guess is Burke has made last pitch for Rangers.”

Fangraphs has his projected ERA between 4.09 and 4.69 with around 9 K/9 and 4.5 BB/9. Decent bullpen depth for this time of the year.
Front office is really playing chess out there lately. I hope it works out.
