Rua was called up from Triple-A Round Rock prior to Wednesday's game against Oakland.

In a slew of moves, the Rangers placed Adrian Beltre on the disabled list with a left hamstring strain, activated Doug Fister (hip) and optioned Matt Bush to Round Rock. Over 16 games with Texas this season, Rua is slashing .178/.208/.267 with one extra-base hit, three RBI and 14 strikeouts in 49 plate appearances. He will likely be utilized in a reserve role moving forward.
