Hits IL with shoulder issue
The Rangers placed Urena on the 15-day injured list Sunday with right shoulder fatigue.
ANALYSIS
Urena will be eligible for activation Sept. 29, but since the Rangers will wrap up their regular season that day, he'll most likely be shelved for the remainder of 2024. The right-hander served as an occasional rotation fill-in and long-relief option this season, making 33 appearances (nine starts) and providing a 3.80 ERA, 1.32 WHIP and 70:39 K:BB across 109 innings. Urena is scheduled to become a free agent this winter.

Urena was mostly terrible last season for the Rockies, but he did post a 3.51 ERA over six starts in the final month and perhaps that was enough to convince the club to re-sign him to a one-year, $3.5 million contract. The 31-year-old was, unsurprisingly, much better on the road than at home, but he wasn't great in either situation and his career-long problems against left-handed batters continued. Urena should open 2023 in the Rockies' rotation, but his leash figures to be short and he's not worth your attention in fantasy leagues.

Could stick in rotation
Urena may have a chance to remain in Texas' rotation after Dane Dunning was diagnosed with a shoulder injury Wednesday, per Evan Grant of The Dallas Morning News.
ANALYSIS
Urena gave up one earned run over five frames in a spot start Tuesday, but he may now be needed for at least a couple turns through the rotation. The veteran right-hander has been solid as a swingman this season with a 3.86 ERA, 1.29 WHIP and 18:11 K:BB across 25.2 innings.
