The right-handed Hurley went on the disabled list July 8 because of a strained left hamstring. He last pitched June 29, getting his first major league win by allowing one earned run in 5 2-3 innings to lead Texas past Philadelphia, 5-1.

Hurley is 1-1 with a 3.57 ERA through his first four major league starts.

Ramirez came up from Frisco on June 21 and hit .233 with two home runs and nine RBIs in 13 games. In 67 games with Frisco, he's hitting .363 with 17 homers and 50 RBIs.
