Rangers' Caden Scarborough: Returns to action Friday
Rotowire
Scarborough (melanoma) tossed 1.2 innings for Texas' Arizona Complex League club Friday, allowing two runs on three hits and one walk while striking out two batters.
Scarborough didn't have a great pitching line Friday, but his presence on the mound was positive given that he underwent surgery to remove a melanoma in February. The right-hander is one of the Rangers' top pitching prospects. He will likely need some time to build back up, but Scarborough could be bumped up to Double-A at some point this season if he pitches well after returning to a standard workload.

Rangers' Caden Scarborough: Targeting May return
Rotowire
Scarborough (melanoma) will likely report to High-A Hub City at the start of May, Jim Callis of MLB Pipeline reports.
Scarborough is building up innings in extended spring training after undergoing surgery in February to remove a melanoma. He was comically good in three starts at High-A to close 2025, striking out 19 while issuing two walks over 13 scoreless innings. Scarborough, who turned 21 at the beginning of April, could get a midseason bump to Double-A if he picks up where he left off last year for the Spartanburgers.

Rangers' Caden Scarborough: Has melanoma removed
Rotowire
Scarborough underwent surgery earlier in February to remove a melanoma, Kennedi Landry of MLB.com reports.
Scarborough reported to Rangers camp Thursday after recovering from the procedure, so he is a bit behind schedule. However, the 20-year-old will have a normal buildup from here on out and is expected to begin the minor-league season on time. Scarborough emerged as one of the Rangers' best pitching prospects in 2025, posting a 2.45 ERA and 114:21 K:BB over 88 innings between Single-A Hickory and High-A Hub City.
