Rangers Shut down Tanner Scheppers

Probably a bad move to move him into the starting 5 even though you know he wanted it.

According to T.R. Sullivan of MLB.com an MRI exam revealed no structural damage, but he’ll be shut down for at least 10 days.
Scheppers’ velocity has been down 2.5 miles per hour compared to last season, but that’s likely due mostly to shifting from the bullpen to the rotation and his average fastball of 93.8 miles per hour is still pretty damn fast.
However, after throwing 77 innings with a 1.88 ERA as a full-time reliever last season Scheppers coughed up 20 runs in 18 innings as a starter this year, which is not what the Rangers had in mind after naming him their Opening Day starter despite zero big-league starts under his belt.

It's best to move him back to the pen when he gets back. I am excited for the start Robbie Ross has had

I won't lie, I actually miss the Rangers fans, they seem few and far between now.

Well this team is an 85-87 win team so that'll weed out bandwagonners plus losing wathawk sucks

It was worth a shot. Now we know where he belongs.

Yeah but Scuba, Fiddy, and several others have started posting less as well.... I mean they used to have a 5-10 page nightly game thread

I think SB has been pretty busy with work. Losing warhawk certainly didn't help. and since we're on spring break I've actually been at the park the last couple nights and don't usually even take my phone out my pocket while I'm there

They had no other options to start the year. He HAD to be in the rotation with all of the injuries.
He is a pen only guy now.

Checking in.
Admittedly, I've slacked on the threads once I got busy with work, wasn't living at home any more, etc.
