SEATTLE -- Rangers pitcher Cole Hamels was fine on Wednesday, one day after getting hit in the left shoulder by a line drive off the bat of Jesus Sucre. Hamels said the shoulder felt like he had a booster shot in the area.
"I'm sure everybody can relate to that," Hamels said.
Hamels should be ready to make his next start on Sunday against the Athletics. That is, unless the Rangers push him back one day so he can pitch against the Astros on Monday.
Manager Jeff Banister said the Rangers are still giving that idea consideration.
