The Round Rock Express have Michael Lorenzen starting for them tonight (Thursday, April 4), and this could be Lorenzen’s final minor league outing before he joins the Texas Rangers rotation.
The 32 year old righthander officially signed with the Rangers on March 22, 2024, on a one year deal. Because Opening Day was just six days away, the Rangers put Lorenzen on the injured list to start the season, allowing him to make a couple of starts at AAA to build up after missing spring training.
Lorenzen started for the Express on March 30 against the Sugar Land Space Cowboys, throwing 50 pitches in 2.
