Quick Summary

The Texas Rangers placed pitcher Cal Quantrill on the injured list due to right lat tightness after he was pulled from Saturday's game after only four batters and twelve pitches. The team recalled Winston Santos from Triple-A Round Rock as a replacement for Quantrill, who has been a key player with a 2.86 ERA in 32 games this season. Quantrill’s absence is significant given his recent strong performance, where he had a 1.75 ERA over his last eleven appearances.
