6 years agoTexas Rangers SP Jason Hammel threw a bullpen session on Monday, as he starts his trek to a potential spot on the 40-man roster. He is in camp with the Rangers on a minor-league deal, looking to resurrect his career after a dismal 12-27 run with a 5.59 ERA over the past two seasons with the Kansas City Royals. The veteran said a couple of problems kept him from being successful in K.C., including not being able to put away hitters consistently with two strikes and being too reliant on his slider and not trusting his slower curveball and changeup. He is a long shot for a rotation spot at this point, and warrants little in the way of fantasy consideration, but that could change as the season progresses.--Daniel Dobish
