The Texas Rangers have placed Ronald Guzman on the injured list due to a torn meniscus in his right knee, the team announced today. To take his place on the active roster, the Rangers have purchased the contract of outfielder Adolis Garcia. To make room for Garcia on the 40 man roster, the Rangers have moved pitcher Matt Bush from the 10 day injured list to the 60 day injured list.
A torn meniscus is probably good news for Guzman, all things considered. A torn meniscus isn’t a minor issue, but it isn’t as bad as a torn ACL, which was my immediate fear when he was hurt.
