ST. PETERSBURG, Fla. (AP) - The Texas Rangers have purchased the contract of right-hander Nick Martinez from Double-A Frisco and optioned reliever Daniel McCutchen to the Texas League club.

Martinez was called up Saturday to make his major league debut as the starting pitcher that night against Tampa Bay.

Also, catcher Chris Gimenez opted to become a free agent instead of accepting an outright assignment to Triple-A Round Rock.
