BREAKING: The Texas Rangers have just activated left-hander Danny Coulombe from the 15-day injured list as of today, September 26, 2023. This urgent move comes after Coulombe missed the last 13 games due to fatigue in his throwing shoulder, a development that has left fans eager for his return.
Coulombe recently completed a successful rehabilitation assignment with Double-A Frisco, where he threw two scoreless innings across two games. His performance demonstrates his readiness to rejoin the Rangers’ bullpen, which is pivotal as the team heads into the final stretch of the season.
This season, Coulombe has made an impact with a 2-1 record, two saves, and an impressive 2.52 ERA over 51 appearances, including one start, for both Texas and Minnesota. Since being traded to the Rangers on July 31, he has appeared in 11 games, posting a 1-1 record but with a higher 7.56 ERA that reflects the challenges he faced during the adjustment period.
In a corresponding move, the Rangers optioned right-hander Luis Curvelo to Triple-A Round Rock to make room for Coulombe on the roster. This strategic decision illustrates the team’s commitment to bolstering their relief pitching as they aim for playoff contention.
The activation of Coulombe is a significant boost for the Rangers, who are seeking to solidify their bullpen as they approach critical games in the postseason race. Fans are eager to see how his return will influence the team’s performance in the upcoming matches.
Stay tuned for more updates as the Rangers push forward in their quest for postseason glory!
