Donnie Murphy activated, Prince Fielder to the disabled list

As expected, Texas Ranger first baseman Prince Fielder has been placed on the disabled list with the herniated disc in his neck that is expected to be operated on on Tuesday.

To take his place on the active roster, the Rangers have activated Donnie Murphy.  Murphy was placed on the disabled list earlier this month with a stiff neck.

With Murphy being activated, we have a bunch of Murphy, Luis Sardinas, Daniel Robertson and Chris Gimenez.
