Right-hander Tyson Ross will make his Rangers’ debut Friday against the Seattle Mariners at Globe Life Park and left-hander Cole Hamels could start a rehab assignment that same night.
Rangers manager Jeff Banister said Ross, who has made four minor league rehab starts since recovering from October surgery to repair thoracic outlet syndrome, has been tapped to join the rotation Friday, barring any last-minute health issues.
“I was excited during the off-season at the prospect of signing Tyson,” Banister said. “Electric arm, electric stuff, big physical guy. He can dominate a lineup, so we look forward to getting him out there.
