Yesterday, the Giants officially announced their signing of right-hander Tyler Mahle. One more piece of the puzzle has to be put into place before Mahle's deal can become official, however: creating a 40-man roster spot for the righty. San Francisco's roster is currently at capacity, which means one player will need to be removed in order to make room for Mahle.

The Rangers will activate Tyler Mahle from the 60-day injured list for Friday's series opener against the Marlins. He is listed as the probable starter against a yet to be announced pitcher for Miami. Texas has a full 40-man roster and will need to designate someone for assignment or transfer one of Marcus Semien, Nathan Eovaldi or Sam Haggerty to the 60-day injured list.

The Rangers placed Tyler Mahle on the 15-day injured list due to shoulder fatigue, retroactive to June 12, bringing up Kumar Rocker.

After allowing just a walk in the 1st, Tyler Mahle had a clean 2nd but faced trouble in the 3rd and 4th, yet managed to silence the Dodgers' offense through 6 innings.
