Ezequiel Duran To Continue Seeing Playing Time

Texas Rangers manager Bruce Bochy said on Tuesday that infielder Ezequiel Duran will continue to get "a lot" of playing time, even after shortstop Corey Seager (hamstring) returns from the injured list. Duran has been starting every day and was bumped up to the second spot in the batting order on Tuesday against the Seattle […]

Jacob deGrom Could Be Out "Another 2-3 Weeks"

Texas Rangers manager Bruce Bochy said that starting pitcher Jacob deGrom (elbow) could be "another 2-3 weeks" from returning from the injured list. deGrom continues to only do light throwing as he rehabs from a right forearm/elbow injury, and the Rangers certainly aren't going to rush the oft-injured 34-year-old right-hander back into action. There is […]

Robbie Grossman Out Of Tuesday's Lineup

Texas Rangers outfielder Robbie Grossman is missing from the lineup for Tuesday's game with George Kirby and the Seattle Mariners. The 33-year-old veteran is batting .235 with three home runs, 17 runs, and 16 RBI through 28 games. In his place is Josh H. Smith, who will play left and bat ninth. The left-handed hitter […]

Jacob deGrom Has No Timeline For Mound Work

Texas Rangers starting pitcher Jacob deGrom (elbow) continues to be limited to playing light catch, and there's no timetable for when he will be cleared to throw off a mound. deGrom's rehab from a right-elbow injury is going to take some time, so fantasy managers won't be getting the 34-year-old right-hander back from the injured […]

Rangers Put Travis Jankowski On 10-Day Injured List

The Texas Rangers placed outfielder Travis Jankowski (hamstring) on the 10-day injured list (retroactive to May 8) on Tuesday with a right-hamstring strain and recalled catcher Sam Huff from Triple-A Round Rock in a corresponding move. Jankowski suffered a mild hamstring injury in the win over the Los Angeles Angels on Sunday, so he should […]

Travis Jankowski Likely Going On The Shelf

Texas Rangers outfielder Travis Jankowski (hamstring) is probably headed to the injured list with a hamstring injury, according to Evan Grant of the Dallas Morning News. The 31-year-old sat out of Monday's contest after he was removed from Sunday's game with the ailment. Jankowski is in the midst of the best offensive campaign of his […]

Corey Seager Expected To Begin Rehab Assignment Thursday

Texas Rangers shortstop Corey Seager (hamstring) is planning to begin a minor league rehab assignment on Thursday. Seager has been sidelined since April 11 with a Grade 2 hamstring strain. It is a good sign that he is nearing a return to action and could be ready to return to the MLB lineup by early […]

Jon Gray Toeing The Rubber Monday Versus Mariners

Texas Rangers pitcher Jon Gray gets the ball Monday night when the Texas Rangers take on the rival Seattle Mariners on the road. It's been a decent start to the season for Gray who owns a 4.40 ERA across six starts. However, Gray also owns a 6.22 FIP, 5.63 SIERA, and a tiny 3.8% K-BB% […]

Travis Jankowski Sitting Out Monday

Texas Rangers outfielder Travis Jankowski is out of Monday's starting lineup against the Seattle Mariners with a hamstring injury. Jankowski was removed from Sunday's contest early with what appeared to be a tight hamstring as he looked awkward heading back to the dugout after crossing home plate in the second inning. The veteran has been […]

Will Smith To Receive Rest Day

Los Angeles Dodgers catcher Will Smith is out of the starting lineup for Monday's game against the Milwaukee Brewers. The 28-year-old will get a much-needed rest day after catching six times and serving as the designated hitter three times since returning from injury on April 29. Smith has been hot at the plate, slashing .306/.411/.556 […]
