Texas Rangers stock report.

Who's hot right now and who's not right now for the Rangers:

HOT RIGHT NOW

Shawn Kelley

He's been the most valuable member of the bullpen thus far, pitching anywhere from the fifth to the ninth. He stepped in as temporary closer for Jose Leclerc this week, picking up a 1-2-3 save Saturday on just seven pitches. His 0.71 WHIP ranks sixth among all relievers. And the five guys better than him average about seven years younger than Kelley, who turned 35 last month. Oh, and fittingly, the Louisville, Ky.
