ARLINGTON -- Right-hander Phil Klein has made the Rangers' Opening Day roster as the long reliever with right-hander A.J. Griffin still in line to be their fifth starter.
Rangers left-hander Cesar Ramos, who was in camp on a Minor League contract, accepted an assignment to Triple-A and will be in Round Rock's starting rotation.
Klein had a 2.70 ERA in four games in the Cactus League and is 2-2 with a 4.71 ERA in 28 games, including two starts, with the Rangers over the past two years. He will likely be the Rangers' long reliever for the first four games of the season.
