According to the Associated Press, a congressional committee will look into Sammy Sosa’s 2005 denial that he used illegal performance-enhancing drugs.
The hearing is infamous now. Mark McGwire, Sammy Sosa, Rafael Palmeiro and Curt Schilling sat at a table before congress on March 17, 2005 and awkwardly discussed baseball's steroid issues. Sosa vehemently denied usage at that time through a written statement, read by his lawyer: "To be clear, I have never taken illegal performance-enhancing drugs. I have never injected myself or had anyone inject me with anything." He is now in danger of facing possibly perjury charges. We'll keep you updated.

The New York Times, citing lawyers with knowledge of test results, reports that Sammy Sosa is among the players who tested positive for performance-enhancing drugs in 2003.
Though Sosa has been widely suspected of performance-enhancing drug use, this represents his first clear link to a positive test result. The 40-year-old, who announced his plans to retire from baseball earlier this month, is sixth on baseball's all-time home run list, with 609.

Sammy Sosa said Wednesday that he's ready to announce his formal retirement from baseball.
"I will calmly wait for my induction to the Baseball Hall of Fame," said a delusional Sosa. "I always played with love and responsibility and I assure you that I will not answer nor listen to rumors. If anything ugly comes up in the future, we will confront it immediately, but with all our strength because I will not allow anybody to tarnish what I did in the field."

Rangers GM Jon Daniels told the Fort Worth Star-Telegram that he has no plans of pursuing free agent Sammy Sosa.
"He did a great job for us in 2007, but I'm not sure it's a fit for us this year," Daniels said. It's hard to see the 40-year-old Sosa realistically fitting in with most teams. He hit 21 homers and 92 RBI on top of a .252 average back in '07 with Texas, but he was a liability against righties.

Rougned Odor
10-Day DL
Rougned Odor is doing agility drills on the field as he continues his recovery from a left hamstring strain.
Odor, who was hurt two weeks ago today, has been doing some hitting in his rehab. He's not expected to come off the DL this week, but he could return during the first week of May.

Elvis Andrus
10-Day DL
Rangers placed SS Elvis Andrus on the 10-day disabled list, retroactive to April 12, with an olecranon fracture in his right elbow.
The move was reported on Wednesday and is now official. Andrus will not require surgery but is expected to be sidelined for 6-8 weeks. Jurickson Profar will handle shortstop while Andrus is on the shelf.

Adrian Beltre
10-Day DL
Rangers placed 3B Adrian Beltre on the 10-day disabled list with a left hamstring strain.
Beltre strained the hamstring while hustling out a single in the eighth inning against the Athletics on Tuesday. The Rangers called up outfielder Ryan Rua to take his place. Beltre has been a quick healer in his career, and assuming there are no setbacks in his rehab he should be back with Texas in a couple of weeks.

60-Day DL
Tim Lincecum (blister) is throwing to hitters on Tuesday.
It sounds like Lincecum should be ready to join the Rangers' bullpen when first eligible at the end of May. He was placed on the 10-day disabled list March 29 after developing a blister on his throwing hand early in spring training and then got transferred to the 60-day DL on April 15, though there hasn't been a setback.

Barnette may rejoin the Rangers' active roster by the end of this week if a minor league rehab assignment is deemed unnecessary. The 34-year-old reliever was placed on the disabled list April 17, retroactive to April 15, with minor inflammation in his right shoulder.

Ricardo Rodriguez
60-Day DL
Rangers transferred RHP Ricardo Rodriguez from the 10-day to the 60-day disabled list.

Ronald Herrera
60-Day DL
Rangers placed RHP Ronald Herrera on the 60-day disabled list with a right shoulder injury.
Herrera is due to miss at least the first half of the 2018 season due to labrum inflammation. He underwent platelet-rich plasma treatment last week.
