What's Happening?
The Texas Rangers have selected Joe Ross from Triple-A Round Rock, following his impressive performance in the minor leagues. Ross has achieved a 2.92 ERA and 1.32 WHIP through 12.1 innings since signing a minor-league deal with the Rangers in late May.
Despite previous challenges with Arizona, where he allowed eight earned runs in 3.2 frames, Ross's recent form has earned him another chance in the majors. To accommodate Ross, Luis Curvelo was optioned to Triple-A, and Michel Otanez was designated for assignment to clear a spot on the 40-man roster.
