Rheinecker on standby, with Padilla possibly injured

mlb.com is reporting that John Rheinecker was scratched from his start for Oklahoma tonight, and is in Arlington in case Vicente Padilla can't pitch tomorrow.

Padilla is reportedly experiencing "forearm irritation"...forearm problems, of course, are always scary in a pitcher, since they can be an indicator of ligament issues.

We should know something tomorrow afternoon...let's keep our fingers crossed...
