Engel Beltre is nursing a strained muscle in the back of his left shoulder.

He has been examined by an orthopedist, who found no structural damage. Beltre could need more tests, though, and it's possible he'll have to pull out of playing for Spain in the World Baseball Classic. Feb 27 - 7:57 PM

Engel Beltre - OF - Rangers

Engel Beltre has been suspended indefinitely by the Texas League for his actions Tuesday night.

Beltre flung a trash can into the stands during a scuffle with fans in San Antonio, Texas after a home run was called back by umpires. The suspension could last for 10 days or longer. Beltre, 21, is batting .253/.286/.316 with zero homers, five RBI and three stolen bases in 18 games for Double-A Frisco this season.

Engel Beltre - OF - Rangers

Single-A Bakersfield’s Engel Beltre went 4-for-5 with a homer, a triple and five RBI on Friday.

Beltre, the outfield prospect the Rangers got from the Red Sox in the Eric Gagne deal, was a big disappointment last year, hitting .227/.281/.317 in 357 at-bats in the California League. He’s just 20, though, and he has plenty of tools. He does need to show more power this year, since he’s probably never going to be a big on-base guy.

Engel Beltre - OF - Rangers

Low Single-A Clinton's Engel Beltre had three hits on Wednesday, giving him 12 in his last five games.

His three hits came on a night in which his team as a whole had five. Beltre, part of the Eric Gagne deal with the Red Sox last year, is hitting .283/.308/.404 on the season. It's a fine line for an 18-year-old in full-season ball, but the fact that he has just seven walks in 339 at-bats is pretty ridiculous.

Thu, Jul 3, 2008 03:50:00 AM

Engel Beltre - OF - Rangers

Engel Beltre went 4-for-5 with a homer and three RBI for low Single-A Clinton on Sunday.

David Murphy and Kason Gabbard have already paid dividends, but Beltre has the most raw talent of the players the Rangers picked up from the Red Sox for Eric Gagne last summer. The 18-year-old is batting .295/.331/.446 in the Midwest League.

Mon, May 5, 2008 03:10:00 AM

Engel Beltre - OF - Rangers

Outfielder Engel Beltre was traded from the Red Sox to the Rangers in a four-player deal.

Beltre is the player in the Eric Gagne deal most likely to make the trade look bad for Boston 10 years from now. Of course, he's also the player most likely to make no contribution in the majors at all. The 17-year-old was hitting .215/.314/.413 in 121 AB for the Rookie GCL Red Sox. The Red Sox thought the left-handed hitter had star potential when they signed him a year ago. It'll likely be a couple of more years before anyone knows for sure.

Engel Beltre - OF - Rangers

ESPN is reporting that Engel Beltre would be included in an Eric Gagne deal with the Rangers, giving Texas three players.

Kason Gabbard and David Murphy are believed to be the other two. This makes the trade look a whole lot better for Texas. Beltre is just 17 and is even further away than Elvis Andrus and Neftali Feliz, but he was one of the top international players available in the 2006 signing period. He ended up taking a $600,000 bonus from Boston.

Tue, Jul 31, 2007 02:56:00 PM

Engel Beltre - OF - Rangers

Engel Beltre homered twice Saturday and once more Sunday for the Rookie GCL Red Sox.

The 17-year-old Beltre was one of the most sought-after players during the 2006 international signing period. He's struck out 36 times in the GCL already, but he's flashed very impressive power for someone so young while hitting .248/.342/.455. He might be one of the Red Sox's top prospects in a year or two.

Mon, Jul 23, 2007 02:46:00 PM

Engel Beltre - OF - Rangers

Red Sox signed outfielder Engel Beltre and shortstop Moises Tejeda to minor league contracts.

Beltre reportedly received a $600,000 bonus and Tejeda got $550,000. The 16-year-olds were ranked second and fourth, respectively, on ESPN's ranking of the newly available Latin American prospects. Beltre is a left-handed hitter and center fielder with power potential. Tejeda is a toolsy shortstop with a big-time arm.

2B	1	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. May 19

Starting Pitcher
Pos	Role	Name
S	1	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. May 1
	2	Yu Darvish
	3	Derek Holland
	4	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. May 17
	5	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. May 21
	6	Justin Grimm
	7	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. May 20
	8	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. May 19
Relief Pitcher
Pos	Role	Name
R	1	Joe Nathan
	2	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. Apr 22
	3	Tanner Scheppers
	4	Robbie Ross
	5	Jason Frasor
	6	Michael Kirkman
	7	Joseph Ortiz
	8	Cory Burns
	9	Neal Cotts
	10	Justin Miller D.L. Justin Miller (elbow) will begin a rehab assignment with Triple-A Round Rock on Friday. 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. May 16
