Chicago White Sox at Texas Rangers (2026-07-20). Erick Fedde vs Jacob deGrom at Globe Life Field.
Starters — Fedde has a 4.15 ERA and 1.42 WHIP over 89 innings, with 6.07 K/9, 3.54 BB/9, and 1.52 HR/9. His last three starts were 4.0 innings with 0 earned runs, 5.1 innings with 2 earned runs, and 5.0 innings with 3 earned runs. The recent form is pointing down, but the strikeout rate remains modest and the WHIP leaves limited margin for traffic. deGrom has a 3.49 ERA and 1.01 WHIP over 100.2 innings, with 10.91 K/9, 1.97 BB/9, and 1.43 HR/9. His last three starts were 5.0 innings with 2 earned runs, 7.0 innings with 2 earned runs, and 6.0 innings with 2 earned runs. His trend is also listed down, though the underlying profile still shows premium bat-missing ability and elite control.
Teams — Chicago enters with a .729 OPS and 469 runs scored, backed by a 4.04 team ERA and 1.31 WHIP. The White Sox are 6-4 over their last 10, and their offense has been slightly more productive than Texas on both OPS and total runs. Texas has a .719 OPS and 412 runs scored, with a 4.31 team ERA and 1.27 WHIP. The Rangers are 5-5 in their last 10. Chicago brings the better run production, while Texas carries the slightly cleaner overall team WHIP.
