Rangers signed LHP Scott Olsen to a minor league contract.
Olsen missed all of 2011 due to shoulder woes and appeared in just three games in the White Sox' minor league system in 2012 before being released. The lefty will turn just 29 in January, but he hasn't had modicum of success in the bigs since 2008 and is a longshot to ever make it up with the Rangers.
Fri, Nov 16, 2012 10:30:00 AM
White Sox released LHP Scott Olsen.
Olsen made just three appearances for the Sox in the minors, giving up two runs over five innings, before getting the boot. It's not clear why the move was made, as it seems surprising given the team's lack of pitching depth. Olsen will look to catch on elsewhere.
Wed, Jul 11, 2012 04:08:00 PM
White Sox signed LHP Scott Olsen to a minor league contract.
The deal includes a major-league option for 2013. Olsen signed a one-year contract with the Pirates last offseason, but didn't throw a pitch for the club due to ongoing shoulder issues and was granted his release in May. We're not expecting things to suddenly turn around for him with Chicago.

Pirates released LHP Scott Olsen.
Olsen landed on the 60-day disabled list back on April 26 due to inflammation in his throwing shoulder. He'll have to prove his health before getting any nibbles as a long reliever. Shoulder issues have been chronic with Olsen, who signed a one-year, $550,000 base contract with the Pirates this offseason.

A.J. Pierzynski
D.L.
A.J. Pierzynski (oblique) is expected to play rehab games on Sunday and Monday.
It's not known which minor league affiliate he'll play with, but it should be enough to ensure he'll be activated on Tuesday. The 36-year-old backstop has been sidelined since May 5 with a strained right oblique.

Sidelined
Ian Kinsler was scratched from Friday's lineup due to bruised ribs.
Kinsler was hit in his ribs with a throw Tuesday while stealing a base and aggravated it on Thursday while getting out of the way of a pitch. Consider him day-to-day for now. Leury Garcia will fill in at second base while Elvis Andrus bats leadoff.

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) underwent an MRI which revealed no structural damage.
Ogando was placed on the disabled list on Thursday with biceps tendinitis after he felt some pain during Wednesday's start against the Athletics. It's an encouraging sign that no more serious damage was found, and his stay on the DL should be a short one. Josh Lindblom is expected to hold his place in the rotation while he's sidelined.

Colby Lewis
D.L.
Colby Lewis (elbow) is expected to rejoin the Rangers' rotation in the first week of June.
After dealing with a minor bout of triceps tendinitis, Lewis will resume his rehab assignment at Double-A Frisco on Monday. He'll need two additional outings after that before being activated. The right-hander is a nice roster stash in fantasy leagues if you have room.

Neftali Feliz
D.L.
Neftali Feliz (elbow) is currently long-tossing at 105 feet.
Feliz's rehab from Tommy John surgery is going as scheduled, though it's not clear when he'll be ready to throw off a mound. The right-hander isn't expected back until late this season.

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.
