Texas Rangers: Will Dillon Gee Grab A Rotation Spot?
Recent injury news has the Rangers concerned about the health of starter Andrew Cashner. The team has announced that Cashner won’t be ready for Opening Day. That means someone else will have to step up and take his spot in the rotation.
Currently multiple pitchers are battling for the last few spots in the Texas Rangers rotation. Veteran right-handed pitcher Dillon Gee could be the pitcher to take over in Cashner’s absence. The team signed Gee to a minor-league deal over the off-season.
Gee most recently pitched with the Kansas City Royals in 2016. He went 8-9 4.68 ERA in 33 games (14 starts) in KC. Gee was forced to miss the end of last season with an injury, but looks healthy this spring.
