Josh Sborz Shut Down for Rest of Season
The Texas Rangers will shut down right-handed reliever Josh Sborz (shoulder) for the rest of the season, manager Bruce Bochy told reporters. Sborz hasn't pitched in the majors at all this year after undergoing shoulder debridement surgery last November. The 31-year-old threw 12 innings in the minors this season, but he wasn't able to regain his velocity and will now turn his attention to a return in spring training. Sborz also dealt with shoulder problems in 2024 and totaled just 16 1/3 innings in the majors as a result. In his most recent full campaign, 2023, he logged a 5.50 ERA (3.35 xERA) with a 1.15 WHIP and 66:17 K:BB over 52 1/3 frames. While Sborz had trouble keeping runs off the board that regular season, he helped pitch the Rangers to a World Series title in the playoffs with 12 innings of one-run ball.
