Tolleson announced his retirement from professional baseball Wednesday.

EDGE Analysis

Tolleson, who hasn't pitched in the majors since July of 2016, recently suffered a setback in his recovery from Tommy John surgery, prompting the soon-to-be 31-year-old to call it quits rather than continue rehabbing. The right-hander spent parts of five seasons with the Dodgers and Rangers, compiling a career 3.92 ERA to go with 46 saves across 218 innings.

Tolleson (elbow) is progressing well in his rehab and hopes to return to game action after the All-Star break, freelance sports writer Anthony Andro reports.

EDGE Analysis

The veteran reliever underwent Tommy John surgery in May, but it seems like he's well on track to return at some point during the 2018 season. Tolleson also missed time last season due to back spasms, so the Rangers will likely be fairly cautious with him as he gets back in the swing of things. He most recently posted a 7.68 ERA in 36.1 innings pitched back in 2016.

Tolleson (elbow) signed a minor-league contract with the Rangers on Thursday which includes an invitation to spring training.

EDGE Analysis

Tolleson missed all of last season due to back spasms and eventual Tommy John surgery in May. He's set to miss the majority of 2018 while recovering from the latter, and it wouldn't be wise to expect much upon his return given the amount of time he's missed. The soon-to-be 30-year-old last pitched with the Rangers in 2016, when he posted a 7.68 ERA across 36.1 innings.

Tolleson was outrighted off the Rays' 40-man roster and elected to become a free agent, Marc Topkin of the Tampa Bay Times reports.

EDGE Analysis

This isn't too surprising, seeing as Tolleson is set to miss most (if not all) of the 2018 season while recovering from Tommy John surgery he underwent in May. He'll likely look to link up somewhere once he's healthy enough.

Tolleson (elbow) was reinstated from the 60-day DL on Thursday, Marc Topkin of the Tampa Bay Times reports.

EDGE Analysis

Tolleson missed the entire 2017 season, which started with a trip to the disabled list due to back spasms, and ended with Tommy John surgery in May. Because of the latter, Tolleson will miss most, if not all, of the 2018 season while recovering from the setback.

Tolleson (elbow) underwent Tommy John surgery Wednesday and will miss the remainder of the 2017 season, Marc Topkin of Tampa Bay Times reports.

EDGE Analysis

Tolleson's season has been a train wreck after signing with Tampa Bay over the offseason. He started the season on the 60-day disabled list due to recurring back spasms, and this just closes the door on what will become a lost season. The former closer will now focus on rehabbing his arm with the hope of returning to action sometime during the summer of 2018.

Tolleson will start the season on the 60-day disabled list due to a flexor strain, Marc Topkin of the Tampa Bay Times reports.

EDGE Analysis

The injury will keep the right-handed veteran out of action for at least two months. Tolleson will occupy a depth relief role upon his return.

Manager Kevin Cash says Tolleson will mostly likely open the season on the disabled list, Marc Topkin of the Tampa Bay Times reports.

EDGE Analysis

Tolleson has been plagued by back spasms throughout spring training and struggled upon his return to the mound, allowing four earned runs over just five innings pitched. It's unclear how long the right-hander will remain on the inactive list, but it creates a position to fill in the Rays' bullpen nonetheless. Austin Pruitt or Jaime Schultz - both of whom have impressed throughout camp - could be top candidates for the potential vacancy.

Tolleson, who gave up two earned runs on two hits and two walks over an inning against the Yankees on Thursday, continues to struggle with his velocity, Roger Mooney of the Tampa Bay Times reports.

EDGE Analysis

The veteran reliever was called out after the game by manager Kevin Cash after another outing with velocity in the low 90s. Thursday, he retired three of seven batters and gave up a home run to Ronald Torreyes while seeing his ERA climb to 7.20 over five appearances. Tolleson's struggles potentially open up a roster spot for a young arm like Austin Pruitt or Jaime Schultz, who've posted 1.84 and 2.13 ERAs, respectively.

Tolleson (back) (1-0) gave up a hit and a walk over a scoreless inning in Tuesday's 10-6 Grapefruit League split-squad win over the Yankees. He also recorded a strikeout.

EDGE Analysis

Having been hampered by back spasms since his initial spring training appearance back on March 3, Tolleson finally returned to the mound and made it through his one inning unscathed despite facing regulars Gary Sanchez, Greg Bird, Matt Holliday, Chase Headley and Aaron Judge. Tolleson's velocity still checked in below his typical 92-93 mph, but the veteran reported feeling healthy coming out of the outing.
