The 35-year-old southpaw also issued a pair of walks in the ballgame and did not record a strikeout. All of the damage done against him came in the second inning as Dansby Swanson swatted a solo home run and Seiya Suzuki tacked on a two-run single. Corbin got just six swings and misses on 74 pitches on the evening, posting a CSW of only 20 percent. It looks like he’ll continue to hold down a spot in the Rangers’ rotation until Jack Leiter (blister) is able to return, but he can continue to be ignored for fantasy purposes when he takes on the Angels on Tuesday.

With Jack Leiter (blister) landing on the injured list, Corbin will get the opportunity to make at least a couple of starts with the Rangers. The 35-year-old southpaw had been building up at Triple-A Round Rock but had yet to make a start there. He’ll make his first start with the Rangers on either Monday or Tuesday against the Cubs and can be safely ignored for fantasy purposes.

Corbin, who was signed nine days ago, is expected to join the Texas rotation on Apr. 11, even though he should be a downgrade unless someone gets hurt. Maybe even if someone gets hurt.

Corbin just signed with the Rangers last week, so it’s not a surprise that he won’t be ready to start the season; however, MLB.com’s Kennedi Landry reports that the Rangers’ goal is to have Corbin up in the Rangers rotation by April 11. That doesn’t give Jack Leiter or Kumar Rocker a lot of time to lock down a rotation spot. With Dane Dunning being sent to the minors, it’s possible that whichever of Leiter or Rocker is less convincing in their first starts will get moved into a long relief role when Corbin is ready.
