(Port Charlotte, Florida-AP) -- Texas Rangers third baseman prospect Mike Lamb has been cleared to play after being hit in the right eye by a ground ball on the first day of spring training. Lamb today said there's no pain or blurring. He went through X-rays and a CAT scan that found no permanent damage in the accident at camp in Florida.
Lamb is expected to replace Todd Zeile at third base. He had 51 doubles, 21 homers and a .324 average last year at Double-A Tulsa of the Texas League. The 51 doubles were the third-highest total in the minor leagues last season. The Rangers have a few options at third. Tom Evans, a non-roster invitee, hit .280 at Oklahoma of the Triple-A Pacific Coast League.
