Rangers' Luis Curvelo: Called up to big-league club
Rotowire
Texas recalled Curvelo from Triple-A Round Rock on Sunday.
Curvelo wasn't able to break camp with the Rangers, but he'll now get a look in the bullpen after Carter Baumler landed on the 15-day injured list Sunday due to a right intercostal strain. In his first big-league stint last season, Curvelo tossed 19 innings over 17 appearances and posted a 5.68 ERA, 1.42 WHIP and 20:10 K:BB while picking up two holds. He'll likely take on a low-leverage role.

Curvelo was optioned to Triple-A Round Rock on Monday.
Curvelo struggled to a 5.68 ERA and 1.42 WHIP over 19.0 innings a season ago in the big leagues, and he wasn't able to show enough during spring training to secure a place in the Rangers' bullpen. He fared better at Triple-A in 2025, posting a 3.76 ERA and 1.32 WHIP with a 41:19 K:BB over 40.2 frames.

Rangers' Luis Curvelo: Back in majors
Rotowire
The Rangers recalled Curvelo from Triple-A Round Rock on Friday.
Curvelo was demoted to Triple-A earlier this month after giving up three runs (two earned) to the Mets without recording an out, but he'll return to the Rangers now that the big club will have to finish the season without Chris Martin (undisclosed) and Cole Winn (undisclosed). Curvelo owns a 5.50 ERA and 1.39 WHIP through 18 MLB innings this year and will likely be limited to middle relief.

Rangers' Luis Curvelo: Gets MLB deal from Texas
Rotowire
The Rangers signed Curvelo to a one-year contract Wednesday.
Curvelo has yet to advance past the Double-A level, but he's netted a major-league deal after collecting a 2.57 ERA and 78:18 K:BB over 66.2 innings at Double-A Arkansas in the Mariners organization in 2024. While the 24-year-old could still begin the 2025 campaign back in the minors, it would seem he has a good shot to debut during the upcoming season.
