Transaction

Added pitcher SAM NARRON to the 40-man roster and recalled him from AAA Oklahoma. Placed pitcher R.A. DICKEY to the 15-day Disabled List.

Texas calls up Narron for his Major League debut against first-place Oakland and will pray that Narron can offer five innings with three runs allowed. Narron has a lukewarm 4.01 ERA in AAA; more problematic is his strikeout rate of three per nine inings. Narron throws slowly and relies on a changeup.
