Lohse was designated for assignment Tuesday, Stefan Stevenson of the Fort Worth Star-Telegram reports.

EDGE Analysis

Lohse was rocked in two major league starts recently, giving up six and seven earned runs, respectively, on his way to two losses and the Rangers have now decided to send him back to the minors on assignment. If the 37-year-old doesn't get picked up by another big league club during his waiver period, he'll likely remain with Triple-A Round Rock where he's compiled a 5.06 ERA and 1.26 WHIP over 10 starts this season.
