Rangers Release Mike Kickham

By Jeff Todd | June 11, 2015 at 4:46pm CDT

The Rangers have released lefty Mike Kickham, per a club announcement (h/t to Anthony Andro of FOX Sports Southwest).

Texas claimed Kickham off waivers just over a month ago from the Mariners. The 26-year-old has struggled at Triple-A since, permitting 21 earned runs in just 27 innings of work. Even worse, he has struck out just 16 batters while issuing an alarming 35 free passes.

Kickham has only minimal big league experience, having thrown 30 1/3 innings over the last two seasons with the Giants. Those weren’t terribly successful either, though he has shown the ability to induce swings and misses from MLB hitters.

      I posted that joke the last time he was released and got modded out. I mean, really: who can resist?

        Really? That’s a bit much…but it doesn’t take much to get get a comment sent to moderator. I’m generally not a fan of mocking names..just out of respect..but I was bored yesterday and it was just too good

    Actually Kickham only made one appearance for Round Rock (6 IP, 4 R, 7 BB). The other stats were compiled with Seattle’s Triple-A team prior to him being claimed by the Rangers. The claim made little sense at the time, less now.

      But hey, I’m sure some desperate team is searching for a pitcher who’s put up an ERA+ of 32 in 30 Major League innings.
