Fri, 20 Jun 2008 12:52:20 GMT

Is there another change in closers occurring in the A.L. West? Texas Rangers' manager Ron Washington looks close to removing C.J. Wilson as the team's closer. Look for Eddie Guardado, another lefty, to get the first chance. I wouldn't be surprised to see Guardado rack-up a lot of saves in a brief time. I wouldn't be surprised to see him not do that. In Guardado's favor...

Wes Littleton is here to replace Scott Feldman. Littleton made sense as the extra reliever because he had the freshest arm. Oklahoma used both Frank Francisco and Kameron Loe yesterday, but not Littleton. Littleton is probably here only until Eddie Guardado returns on Saturday.

T.R. Sullivan reports that Eddie Guardado has been put on the disabled list to make room for Luis Mendoza on the 25 man roster. Mendoza starts tonight, and the Rangers are now without a lefty in the bullpen (other than C.J. Wilson).
