The Rangers made a flurry of moves before Friday’s series opener against the Mariners.
Center fielder Carlos Gomez and Mike Napoli were activated from the disabled list and in the lineup and Ryan Rua and Jurickson Profar were optioned to Triple A Round Rock. Reliever Tony Barnette was placed on the 10-day DL with a sprained right ring finger and Dario Alvarez was called up.
Dillon Gee was designated for assignment to make room for right-hander Tyson Ross, who is making his Rangers’ debut Friday night.
“I feel like a kid,” said Gomez, who has been out since May 16 with a right hamstring strain.
