Texas Rangers Opening Day roster moves
The Texas Rangers 2018 Opening Day roster has been finalized. Martin Perez, Ricky Rodriguez, Tony Barnette and Tim Lincecum have all been placed on the 10 day disabled list, retroactive to March 26, moves that we knew were happening.
In addition, as expected, Kevin Jepsen has been added to the 25 man roster and the 40 man roster. To make room for Jepsen on the 40 man roster, the Rangers have designated first baseman Tommy Joseph for assignment. Joseph was claimed on waivers from the Philadelphia Phillies on March 19, 2018.
