While the Texas Rangers' postseason success has been attributed to their star signings and exciting rookies, the contributions of unheralded players Mitch Garver, Jonah Heim, and Nathaniel Lowe have been crucial. Garver has been driving in runs and hitting well, particularly against left-handed pitchers, while Heim has excelled defensively and recorded hits in all five postseason games. Lowe, despite a dip in power this season, could be a key player against the righty-heavy Houston pitching staff. The Rangers' success is a result of a team effort and the contributions of these under-the-radar players.
