Rangers activated RHP Chris Martin from the 15-day injured list; designated him for assignment.

With the Rangers suddenly looking to sell, they’re apparently hoping someone will pick up the approximately $1.3 million that Martin is still owed this season. The 40-year-old righty had been on the IL with a shoulder impingement since July 12, though he’d pitched six times on a rehab assignment. He’s given up 14 earned runs in 14 innings while healthy this year, but his velocity hasn’t really changed.
