Cody Bradford to open season on 15-day IL

Bradford (elbow) will begin the season on the 15-day injured list, Rangers manager Bruce Bochy said Thursday, per Kennedi Landry of MLB.com. (Kennedi Landry)

Fantasy Impact:

An MRI on Bradford’s left elbow ruled out structural damage, but the Rangers will shut him down for up to 10 days to allow the soreness to subside. With his throwing program on hold, he’ll need extra time to rebuild his stamina, making a return beyond the minimum IL stint a possibility. Texas will likely turn to Jack Leiter or Kumar Rocker to fill the rotation spot in his absence.
