Rangers purchased the contract of LHP Neal Cotts from Triple-A Round Rock.
Cotts hasn't appeared in the majors since 2009 but has earned a call-up with some brilliant work at Triple-A, where he's posted a 0.78 ERA and absurd 42/5 K/BB ratio over 23 innings. He'll be used in middle relief.
May 21 - 6:47 PM
Rangers re-signed LHP Neal Cotts to a minor league contract.
Cotts returned in 2012 after being sidelined for 2 1/2 years because of injury, posting a 4.55 ERA with 41 strikeouts over 31 2/3 innings for Triple-A Round Rock. The 32-year-old hasn't appeared in the majors since May of 2009.

Rangers reassigned LHP Neal Cotts to minor league camp.
Cotts was in the mix for a bullpen job this spring, but he suffered a Grade 2 strain of his left lat muscle over the weekend and is expected to be sidelined for the next four weeks. The Rangers also reassigned infielder Luis Hernandez to minor league camp.

Neal Cotts was diagnosed with a Grade 2 strain of his left lat muscle.
Cotts will need four weeks of rehab before beginning a throwing program. The 32-year-old made a strong case for a bullpen spot this spring by posting a 4.22 ERA and 7/3 K/BB ratio over 10 2/3 innings, but it now appears Robbie Ross will win a job as the lone left-hander.

Ian Kinsler
D.L.
Rangers placed 2B Ian Kinsler on the 15-day disabled list, retroactive to May 18, with an intercostal strain.
Kinsler hasn't started the last two games with rib soreness and said he still felt discomfort during batting practice on Sunday. The Rangers aren't overly concerned about the injury, but top prospect Jurickson Profar will be called up to replace Kinsler on the active roster. Kinsler is batting .302/.369/.500 with seven home runs through his first 40 games this season.

Matt Harrison
D.L.
Matt Harrison recently had a setback with his back that required an additional surgery on Wednesday.
Harrison underwent an operation on April 23 to repair a herniated disk in his lower back but began feeling additional discomfort this week, necessitating another procedure. According to T.R. Sullivan of MLB.com, the Rangers are "operating under the assumption that Harrison will pitch again this season, but he will be out for at least three months." In other words, we won't see him again until August at the earliest, and it seems like there's a good chance it will be longer than that.

Alexi Ogando
D.L.
Alexi Ogando (biceps) has been playing catch but said he is only throwing around "40 percent."
"I don't know when they'll let me throw hard," the right-hander added. Ogando said that he's feeling better, so there's definitely some progress even if it might be coming slowly. There is no structural damage in Ogando's biceps, but it's unclear when he'll return.

Nick Tepesch
Sidelined
Nick Tepesch has been scratched from his Wednesday start due to a blister on his right middle finger.
Ross Wolf will take the mound in his place. Tepesch should be fine by his next turn in the Rangers' rotation.

Colby Lewis
D.L.
Colby Lewis (elbow) acknowledged on Monday afternoon that he's unhappy with his fastball velocity.
Lewis was sitting around 85-86 mph in his rehab start Monday at Double-A Frisco and wants to be closer to 89-91 mph by the time he returns to the major leagues. The hope had been that he would be ready to rock during the first week of June, but a more realistic timetable calls for him to be activated near the middle of the month. Lewis is on his way back from major right elbow surgery.

Neftali Feliz
D.L.
Neftali Feliz (elbow) is long-tossing at 120 feet.
Feliz's rehab from Tommy John surgery is going fine, although it's not yet been announced when he'll be ready to throw off a mound. We expect him to return to a major league mound late in the summer.

Joakim Soria
D.L.
Joakim Soria (elbow) will be shut down for 2-3 weeks with a strained pectoral muscle and is now not expected to return until around July 1.
A tough break for the Rangers, as Soria had been slated to join the Rangers' bullpen as soon as late next month. The good news is that his surgically-repaired elbow is fine. The Rangers will continue to use a host of players to set up for Joe Nathan.

Miller is working his way back from Tommy John surgery. He'll need plenty of rehab time but could be a relief option for the Rangers next month.
