Rice Baseball: 2022 MLB Owls update – May 18

May 18, 2022 By Matthew Bartlett

The 2022 MLB season is underway and Rice baseball alums are busy on the mound and at the plate. Here’s the latest from the MLB Owls.

Anthony Rendon – Los Angeles Angels

Rendon started to heat up at the plate this week, slashing .400/.478/.650 with a 1.128 OPS through six games. Three of his eight hits went for extra bases including this two-run dinger to put the Halos in front against the Rangers.

J.T. Chargois – Tampa Bay Rays

Chargois looks to be getting closer to making his return. He will reportedly start a minor-league rehab stint this week with the Durham Bulls, the first step in his return to the big league club.

Through May 18, Chargois has a 0.00 ERA with a 0.000 WHIP. He’s averaging 13.5 strikeouts per nine innings.

Tyler Duffey – Minnesota Twins

Duffey’s string of strong outings continued this week. He hasn’t given up an earned run since May 1, allowing just one hit in seven innings since that outing. Duffey appeared in three games for the Twins this week, earning his first save on Monday against the Athletics.
