Latest News
| A.J. Pierzynski homers in win |
by Jeff Lippman | CBSSports.com
(6/17/13) Rangers catcher A.J. Pierzynski went deep in the second inning of Monday's win over the Athletics. Pierzynski's sixth homer of the season was a two-run shot that put the Rangers up 2-0 en route to an 8-7 win.
Pierzynski went 2 for 3 with a walk. He added his eighth double and scored twice. He drove in three runs and is batting .305 with 20 RBI on the year.
He has gone 4 for 7 in his last two contests to get back over .300. He'd gone 1 for 12 over a three-game stretch before his bat woke up Sunday against Toronto and continued to hit Monday.

| A.J. Pierzynski out of lineup |
by Chris Cwik | CBSSports.com
(6/14/13) Rangers catcher A.J. Pierzynski is out of Friday's lineup.
Pierzynski will be replaced by Geovany Soto, who will bat sixth against Mark Buehrle. Pierzynski is hitting .295/.328/.440 in 166 at-bats this year and is likely just receiving a day off against a left-handed pitcher.

| A.J. Pierzynski snaps homerless drought |
by Chris Towers | CBSSports.com
(6/12/13) Rangers catcher A.J. Pierzynski homered for the first time since late April Tuesday against the Indians, ending a 27-game homerless streak.
Pierzynski went 2 for 3 in the game with a solo home run and a walk, in a 5-2 loss. He now has five home runs on the season, with a .310 batting average and .805 OPS.

| A.J. Pierzynski getting the day off |
by Jeff Lippman | CBSSports.com
(6/8/13) The Rangers left catcher A.J. Pierzynski out of the lineup Saturday in Toronto against Mark Buehrle of the Blue Jays.
Getting a bit of rest, the 36-year-old is batting .296 on the season with four homers and 15 RBI. He's really hitting well over his last 12 games. Pierzynski has gone 16 for 41 (.390) over that span with four of his runs driven in and six doubles.

| A.J. Pierzynski gets back to .300 |
by Jack Moore | CBSSports.com
(6/5/13) Rangers catcher A.J. Pierzynski recorded three hits in Tuesday's loss to Boston.
Pierzynski finished 3 for 4 with a run scored. The performance raised his batting average back to .300 for the first time since April 23. Pierzynski has a .769 OPS to go with it.

| We can say with near-certainty that A.J. Pierzynski will not repeat his power outburst from 2012, which produced a career-high 27 home runs. His next-closest total came in 2005, when Pierzynski hit 18 home runs. He had a handful of double-digit home run seasons mixed in, but a breakout 27 home-run season for a catcher usually comes from a 25-year-old, not a 35-year-old. Pierzynski's average is sustainable -- if anything, his .278 was low by his standards -- and his 18 doubles should probably rise to about 22 in 2013. But don't draft Pierzynski hoping for 25 home runs again -- you'll be lucky if he hits 15. And things are further complicated with him likely sharing at-bats with Geovany Soto. Pierzynski is best left for the later rounds of most drafts, as a backup catcher. (Updated 1/2/13) |
