Guardado to the DL, Mendoza recalled

According to multiple local reports, the Rangers have placed
lefthander Eddie Guardado (shoulder soreness) on the 15-day disabled list, making
room on the active roster for tonight’s starter, righthander Luis Mendoza.  The Guardado move is retroactive to April 5.

Meanwhile, Boston
designated righthander Bryan Corey for assignment last night, after he’d posted
a 14.54 ERA in six relief appearances.  Corey
is the 34-year-old journeyman for whom the Red Sox quietly traded Mendoza to
Texas two summers ago, days after the Rangers had designated Corey for assignment
themselves.

The Rangers will make another roster
subtraction tomorrow in order to recall righthander Scott Feldman from Frisco for
the Sunday afternoon start.
