He could get a chance at a do-over in , starting the season in a relief role. However, the Rangers showed during the trade deadline that they are willing to part with him, as he was initially part of the trade that sent Joey Gallo to New York.

Joe Barlow is the biggest development out of the bullpen for the Rangers this season. He pitched his way into the closer's role after Kennedy was traded, and has done very well since, despite his worst outing of the season on September 1, which resulted in his only blown save.
