Cody (shoulder) was activated from the 60-day injured list by Triple-A Round Rock on Tuesday.

EDGE Analysis

Cody has been sidelined since undergoing shoulder surgery late last September, and he's on Rochester's active roster after an eight-game rehab assignment with Texas' rookie-level affiliate in the Arizona Complex League. Cody appeared in seven games for the Rangers last year and had a 7.94 ERA over 11.1 innings, and he could be a bullpen option down the stretch for the big-league club.

Cody (shoulder) was outrighted to Triple-A Round Rock on Friday.

EDGE Analysis

Cody dealt with shoulder injuries for most of the 2021 campaign and will miss the start of the 2022 season after he underwent surgery in late September. The right-hander will now lose his spot on the 40-man roster to make room for several prospects whose contracts were selected Friday.

Cody (shoulder) underwent labral debridement surgery Wednesday, Chris Halicke of SI.com reports.

EDGE Analysis

Cody has been shut down since late April with an inflamed right shoulder, and with the injury failing to show the desired improvement over the subsequent five months, the 27-year-old has seemingly opted for a procedure as the last resort. The Rangers are hopeful that Cody will be ready to pitch in the second half of the 2022 campaign, but any setbacks along the way could push his recovery timeline into 2023.

Rangers president of baseball operations Jon Daniels said last week that Cody (shoulder) could be ready to return from the 60-day injured list in September, Levi Weaver of The Athletic reports.

EDGE Analysis

Cody was shut down in late April with a right shoulder impingement, and he doesn't appear to have made much meaningful progress in his recovery from the injury. The Rangers are holding out hope that Cody will be able to increase the intensity of his throwing program in August, but he'll still need to complete an extended minor-league rehab assignment thereafter before his return to the big-league roster is seriously considered.

The Rangers transferred Cody (shoulder) to the 60-day injured list Sunday.

EDGE Analysis

Cody's move to the 60-day IL means he won't be eligible to rejoin the Rangers until at least late June while he recovers from a right shoulder impingement. The transaction frees up a spot on the 40-man roster for catcher Jack Kruger, whom the Rangers claimed off waivers from the Angels.

The Rangers placed Cody on the 10-day injured list Sunday with right shoulder inflammation.

EDGE Analysis

Texas recalled Josh Sborz from its taxi squad to replace Cody in the bullpen and on the 26-man roster. Cody had worked mostly in lower-leverage spots in relief for the Rangers this season, posting a 7.94 ERA and 1.59 WHIP across 11.1 innings.

Cody (0-2) took the loss Friday against the White Sox, allowing three runs on four hits while striking out four across three innings.

EDGE Analysis

The young reliever was called upon to preserve a tie game late in the game Friday. Cody would register one clean inning, but would get hit hard in his final two innings. The 26-year-old has surrendered runs in five out of his seven outings this year and maintains a 7.94 ERA across 11.1 innings.

Cody allowed one hit and struck out two over a scoreless inning in Friday's 3-0 loss to the Padres.

EDGE Analysis

This was the first scoreless outing among three appearances for Cody, one of several Rangers with a scant major-league track record. Coming off Tommy John elbow surgery that wiped out 2019, the right-hander started five games for Texas in 2020 and is being used out of the bullpen this season. What looked like fine results on the surface in 2020 (1.59 ERA) were less special upon deeper inspection (5.2 BB/9, 5.37 xFIP). Thus far in 2021, the results have not been so great, as Cody has permitted five runs (four earned) on seven hits, one walk and three hit batsmen over 4.1 innings.

Cody has been informed that he'll make the Rangers' Opening Day roster, Evan Grant of The Dallas Morning News reports.

EDGE Analysis

Cody will begin the season in the bullpen after tossing just 22.2 innings across the past two seasons. The right-hander has posted a 7.15 ERA and 1.76 WHIP in 11.1 innings this spring and should have his workload monitored in 2021. However, he could fill in as a starter if needed this year.

Cody allowed one walk and struck out six over three scoreless innings in Wednesday's spring game against the Reds.

EDGE Analysis

Cody entered camp with several other young pitchers competing for two tandem rotation spots but had not delivered results over his first four appearances. Prior to Wednesday's impressive outing, the right-hander allowed nine runs, 17 hits and three walks over 8.1 innings. Cody underwent Tommy John elbow surgery and missed all of 2019 before throwing just 22.2 innings in 2020. As such, the Rangers plan to monitor his usage in 2021.
