The Texas Rangers have activated relief pitcher Josh Sborz from the injured list, the team announced today. To make room for Sborz on the active roster, the Rangers have optioned relief pitcher Jake Latz to AAA Round Rock.
Sborz was placed on the injured list after allowing six runs while recording two outs in a September 4 appearance against the Houston Astros. He has a 5.80 ERA in 49.2 innings this year, and has oscillated between being very effective and being terrible. If he’s back on track, he could be a late inning option for Bruce Bochy.
