Chris Martin's eventful week ends with a third trip to the disabled list

The last few days have been an adventure for Rangers' reliever Chris Martin.

The right-hander was placed on the 10-day disabled list with a left groin strain before Thursday's series opener against the Tigers.

Martin was optioned to Triple-A Round Rock before Tuesday's game. But he was recalled less than 24 hours later when Tony Barnette was placed on the DL with a right shoulder strain on Wednesday. Martin pitched in Wednesday's game but slipped and fell during a pitch. He finished the inning but was diagnosed with a groin strain.
