Texas Rangers pitcher Dane Dunning has been activated from the paternity list, the team announced today. To make room on the active roster for Dunning, the Rangers have placed pitcher Joe Barlow on the 15 day injured list with what is described as “an illness.”
Dunning was originally scheduled to start Sunday’s series finale in Baltimore, but due to his child being born on Thursday, he went on the paternity list and Cody Bradford was brought up to make that start. Dunning is now slated to face off on Wednesday against Joey Wentz in the series finale against the Tigers.
