Wyatt Langford Making Cactus League Debut On Friday
1 month agoTexas Rangers outfielder Wyatt Langford (oblique) will make his Cactus League debut on Friday and is hitting third and serving as the designated hitter against the Colorado Rockies. Langford is just now ready to play in spring games after missing the first couple weeks of spring training games due to a mild oblique strain. The 23-year-old will take it slow and start off by serving as the DH, but he'll now have three weeks to get up to full speed before Opening Day later this month on March 27 against the Boston Red Sox. The former fourth overall pick last year out of the University of Florida slashed .253/.325/.415 with a .740 OPS, 16 home runs, 74 RBI, 19 stolen bases and 74 runs scored in 134 games in his MLB debut in 2024 and is one of the best young outfield power/speed threats in the game. In what should be a better Rangers lineup in 2025, Langford is a top-20 fantasy outfielder.
