Texas Rangers transactions: Sherten Apostel has been optioned to AAA Round Rock, the team announced today, and A.J. Alexy, David Garcia and Yerry Rodriguez have been optioned to AA Frisco. That leaves the Rangers with 34 players, by my account, on the 40 man roster who have not been sent down or put on the injured list.
None of these moves are a surprise, as none of the four were seen as serious candidates to make the Opening Day roster, and as there is no “minor league camp” right now to send the players to, the moves are purely procedural.
