Rich Harden has been placed on the DL (again!)

[DirtyKash]

Rich Harden has been placed on the DL with a case of suckitis. I'm stunned.

Rich Harden has landed on the 15-day disabled list with a strained left gluteus muscle, and right-hander Alexi Ogando has taken his place on the roster. The Rangers won't need to fill Harden's spot in the rotation until June 19 at Houston, and a decision hasn't been made on who will fill that role.

No word has been given on when Harden might have been injured. He slid to field a popped-up bunt in the second inning Friday, and he had to run the bases twice. It could be something that has bothered him for some time.

Either way, the timing of the DL stint comes the day after he surrendered four home runs in a 6-2 loss to Milwaukee. His ERA is 5.68, and he has had only one good start this season.

Some say he is perpetually injured.

And the sky is blue. OMG!

Guess who's back? Back again! Richard Harden returns to his home away from home.

Unfortunately for Texas, Nelson Cruz is hobbled again too. Just think of the monster year he would be having if he had been healthy.

Just think of the monster year I would have had in fantasy in Cruz was healthy. Harden should return only as a reliever and they need to tell him now so he can get his mind focused on nothing but that. Let him get his crying out of the way. Rangers have a legitimate shot at playing in a WS and need a healthy Harden. Cruz seems like he will miss a few games but who knows, he has spent two stints on the DL with hamstring problems.

The Disabled List is Rich Harden's safe zone.

It's like his mom's teet.

I just said that.
