The Texas Rangers place Frank Francisco on the D.L.
The Rangers have placed closer Frank Francisco on the 15-day disabled list with right shoulder tendinitis. Veteran lefty C.J. Wilson will replace Francisco while he is out of action. Wilson has pitched in 28 games (0 starts) this season for the Rangers and he is 3-3 with 6 saves, a 3.12 ERA and a 1.38 WHIP. Wilson will likely do a decent job while Francisco is out but the Rangers’ bullpen will still miss him.
