ARLINGTON — Texas Rangers third baseman Josh Jung was given a “mental day” and did not play Sunday’s series finale vs. the Chicago White Sox at Globe Life Field.

Chicago White Sox center fielder Luis Robert Jr. was a late scratch at the Texas Rangers due to right thumb soreness.

Left-hander Cody Bradford and right-hander Josh Sborz made their latest benchmarks for a return to the Texas Rangers.

The Cleveland Browns star threw the ceremonial first pitch to his father, Lawrence, ahead of Sunday’s Rangers-White Sox series finale. Garrett, an Arlington native, seemed to place his pitch well, but his dad couldn’t come up with the catch.

The Rangers have released right-hander Gerson Garabito, according to the club's official transactions ledger.  Evan Grant of the Dallas Morning

The Texas Rangers may have a need to bring up a starter from the minor leagues, depending upon how things develop with this key starter

Texas placed Mahle, 30, on the injured list with shoulder with shoulder fatigue. The right-hander is in the midst of the best season of his career as he holds a 2.34 ERA and 1.13 WHIP over 77 innings 14 starts.
