The Rangers have set their Opening Day roster, with no real surprises.
PITCHERS (12): Tony Barnette, Jake Diekman, Sam Dyson, Andrew Faulkner, Cole Hamels, Derek Holland, Keone Kela, Phil Klein, Colby Lewis, Martin Perez, Shawn Tolleson, Tom Wilhelmsen
CATCHERS (2): Robinson Chirinos, Bryan Holaday
INFIELDERS (6): Hanser Alberto, Elvis Andrus, Adrian Beltre, Prince Fielder, Mitch Moreland, Rougned Odor
OUTFIELDERS (5): Shin-Soo Choo, Delino DeShields, Ian Desmond, Ryan Rua, Justin Ruggiano
15-DAY DL (4): RHP Yu Darvish, C Chris Gimenez, OF Josh Hamilton, RHP Luke Jackson
60-DAY DL (1): RHP Tanner Scheppers
The expectation is that Klein will be optioned before Game Five, when A.J. Griffin is purchased to make that start. As Griffin is off the 40-man roster, an accompanying move will need to be made to clear a spot on the 40 for him.
