Sborz was hit by a comebacker on the right arm during Friday's loss to the Mariners, Arianna Vedia of MLB.com reports.
EDGE Analysis
Sborz, who was the game opener, got the first two batters before taking a line-drive single off the right arm. The right-hander stayed to finish the inning, but Texas manager Chris Woodward said the team is waiting to see how Sborz responds Saturday. Woodward referred to the pitcher as a "tough kid" but acknowledged the arm was sore Friday.

Sborz will start Friday's game against the Mariners.
EDGE Analysis
Sborz will lead a bullpen game for the Rangers to open the series against the Mariners. He has thrown two innings in each of his last two appearances and could be in for a similar workload Friday. It's unclear who may follow Sborz into the game, though Taylor Hearn may be available to throw a few innings.

The Rangers recalled Sborz from Triple-A Round Rock on Tuesday, Joseph Hoyt of The Dallas Morning News reports.
EDGE Analysis
Sborz replaces Matt Bush, who was traded to Milwaukee on Monday. Although he's pitched well with a 1.61 ERA at Triple-A this season, Sborz has a 7.94 mark in 11.1 big-league innings and doesn't figure to be entrusted with many important innings out of the Rangers' bullpen.

Sborz was optioned to Triple-A Round Rock on Friday.
EDGE Analysis
Sborz was called up by the Rangers on Wednesday, and he allowed a hit and no walks while striking out one in a scoreless relief inning Thursday. However, he'll head back to the minors after Taylor Hearn was recalled from Round Rock on Friday.

The Rangers recalled Sborz from Triple-A Round Rock on Wednesday.
EDGE Analysis
After a week-long stay in the minors, Sborz will make his way back to the big club after fellow reliever Joe Barlow (finger) was placed on the 15-day injured list in a corresponding move. Sborz owns an 8.71 ERA and 1.94 WHIP over 10.1 innings with Texas this season and is likely to see most his work in the middle innings or non-competitive contests.

The Rangers recalled Sborz from Triple-A Round Rock on Sunday.
EDGE Analysis
Sborz joins the Rangers' 26-man active roster as a replacement in the bullpen for Matt Bush, who was placed on the 15-day injured list with right forearm soreness. While he's up with the big club, Sborz projects to work in a low-leverage middle-relief role.

The Rangers optioned Sborz to Triple-A Round Rock on Wednesday.
EDGE Analysis
Sborz was with the big club for just one day after Texas designated him as its 27th man for Tuesday's doubleheader with Cleveland. He appeared in the Rangers' 6-3 loss in Game 1 of the twin bill, working around one hit and one walk to turn in a scoreless inning out of the bullpen.

The Rangers recalled Sborz from Triple-A Round Rock on Tuesday and designated him as their 27th man for their doubleheader with the Guardians.
EDGE Analysis
Sborz will likely be in store for a brief stay with the Rangers, though the fact that Texas placed another reliever (Brett Martin) on the COVID-19-related injured list Tuesday could give the 28-year-old a chance to stick around in the big leagues once the doubleheader is completed. Through his eight relief appearances with Texas this season, Sborz has compiled a 10.80 ERA and 1.92 WHIP over 8.1 innings.
