The Rangers will call up five players from the minor leagues Tuesday.
LHP Michael Kirkman, RHP Spencer Patton, RHP Nick Tepesch, RHP Lisalverto Bonilla and shortstop Luis Sardinas will join the club this week.
Patton, who was acquired in a trade with Kansas City in July, won't participate with the Rangers until Thursday. In 15 games, the reliever has a WHIP of 1.19.
Tepesch, technically isn't a call-up. He was optioned to Triple-A Round Rock last weekend in a procedural move and will start Wednesday at Kansas City.
Kirkman and Sardinas have spent time with the Rangers this season. After he was sent down, Sardinas hit .281 in 349 at-bats for Round Rock this summer.
Bonilla was 4-2 with a 4.10 ERA in 39 games for Round Rock this season and his final two appearances were as a starter. He allowed one run on six hits in seven innings of work in a 93 pitch effort Aug. 31 against Nashville.
