Back problems had Roy Oswalt contemplating retirement before he eventually decided to continue pitching and signed with the Rangers, but now he?ll miss at least one start with lower back soreness.
Oswalt was scheduled to start today versus the Red Sox, but instead he?ll be examined by doctors in Houston and Scott Feldman will take his place in the rotation.
For now the Rangers are hopeful that Oswalt will avoid the disabled list and general manager Jon Daniels told Richard Durrett of ESPN Dallas that the team was prepared for this situation when they signed the 34-year-old:
Prior to signing Roy he expressed to us what exactly is happening now. Sometimes this acts up with his lower back. If it?s the same thing he?s had in the past, and he expects it is, he believes he?ll make his next start. We?ve got to wait and see, but that?s our hope at this point.
Oswalt struggled initially upon joining the Rangers? rotation, but has allowed just one run in back-to-back starts and his 25/6 K/BB ratio in 29 innings overall is very good.
