By

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.

J.T. Chargois – Tampa Bay Rays

Chargois returned to the rubber this week, more than three months removed from his last big league outing. He worked one scoreless inning on Tuesday against the Rays, striking out one and allowing no base runners of any kind. It was a great welcome back to the big league club after an extended absence.

Chargois has a 0.00 ERA with a 0.000 WHIP. He’s averaging 10.8 strikeouts per nine innings.

Lucas Luetge – New York Yankees

Luetge appeared in two contests this past week, throwing 1.1 innings against the Rays on Wednesday, July 17 and 2.0 innings against the Blue Jays the next day. Between the 3.1 total innings, he stuck out three, walked one and allowed five hits and one run.

Through August 24, Luetge has a 2.74 ERA with a 1.289 WHIP. He’s averaging 8.9 strikeouts per nine innings.

Glenn Otto – Texas Rangers

On Saturday, Otto delivered his first start without an earned run allowed since July 12. He worked 5.2 innings against the Twins, allowing one unearned run on three hits. He’s lowered his ERA almost a full point since early July.

Through August 24, Otto has a 4.66 ERA with a 1.394 WHIP. He’s averaging 6.8 strikeouts per nine innings.

Injured List

Anthony Rendon – Los Angeles Angels

The Angels announced on June 17  that Rendon would undergo season-ending surgery on his right wrist. His season is done.

Rendon finished the year hitting .228 with 15 extra-base hits, 23 walks and 32 strikeouts. His OPS is .707 and he’s collected 24 RBI.

BREAKING: Wiley Green named Rice football starting quarterback

By

Rice football has its QB1. After battling through the spring and fall camp, redshirt junior Wiley Green has been named the Owls’ starter.

It’s never come easy for Rice football quarterback Wiley Green, yet somehow he’s always managed to be the last man standing. Green has battled for the starting quarterback job through several offseasons at South Main and has once again done enough to win the competition in camp. On Monday, head coach Mike Bloomgren announced Green had been named the Owls’ starter for their opening game against USC.

Through four seasons, Green has thrown for 11 touchdowns and 10 interceptions. He’s thrown for 1,849 yards in his career and hopes to make the 2022 season his first wire-to-wire campaign as a starer after losing the job on multiple occasions due to injury.

Green won a fierce battle for the job from challenger TJ McMahon, who by most accounts had the upper hand throughout the spring and into the early stages of fall camp. While McMahon did showcase plenty of growth from his debut against Louisiana Tech last fall, Green’s consistency and veteran savvy would prove to be enough in the end.

It was Green who earned the opening nod last season and very nearly led his team to an upset win over Arkansas. He reemerged later in the season and did complete the Owls’ marquee road upset of UAB, directing the Blazers’ defense in what was his best outing of his Rice career, notching one of the most significant wins for the Owls under Bloomgren in the process.

Now, for the third time in his career, Green will be the opening day starter. He’ll be the man at the helm to kick off a 2022 season which the Owls believe will be a breakthrough campaign.
