Scheppers has really struggled of late and perhaps this is a reason why. Ranger sources said he thought he could "grind through it" but after failing to retire a batter and blowing a three run lead in yesterday's loss to the Giants, it's obvious that something more had to be done.

Scheppers has been awful lately and today's performance will only increase the anxiety level of manager Jeff Bannister. With an ERA now at 5.63, don't be shocked if he gets sent down to Triple-A to work out his issues.
