Rangers shuffle rotation, bullpen: With RHP Kevin Millwood set to rejoin the rotation Friday, manager Ron Washington outlined the rest of the rotation to the Dallas Morning News: RHP Scott Feldman will pitch Saturday, followed by RHP Sidney Ponson, RHP Vicente Padilla and LHP Kason Gabbard. Washington also said the club is considering keeping RHP Doug Mathis as a long reliever when Millwood returns. If the club keeps Mathis, it could option either RHP Kameron Loe or RHP Josh Rupe back to Triple-A Oklahoma. (Updated 05/28/2008).

Fantasy Analysis
Feldman is nothing more than a high-risk starter for the deepest of AL-only leagues. Mathis, Loe and/or Rupe are nothing more than low-end middle relievers for the deepest of NL-only leagues that use true middle men, if they get to stick around. Padilla is a sleeper for deeper Fantasy leagues in the right matchups, while Ponson and Gabbard are more streaky and risky in those formats. (Updated 05/28/2008).
