Corey Seager is not in the starting lineup for the Rangers on Thursday against the Red Sox.
It seems like a routine day off for Seager with a day game after a night game. Josh Smith will start at shortstop with Joc Pederson at first base and Dustin Harris at designated hitter.
Rangers activated INF Corey Seager off the 10-day injured list.
The Rangers offense has been putrid, but they’ll get their best hitter back for the rubber match against the Mariners. Seager may get a day or two off for maintenance on his hamstring, but he’s obviously someone who has to be added to fantasy lineups as soon as possible.
Corey Seager is hoping to be activated from the injured list before Saturday’s game against the Mariners.
Seager was able to do some light running and and also took live batting practice Thursday. The 31-year-old was placed on the injured list last Wednesday, so this would be a quick activation for Seager. Even if it doesn’t take place Saturday, the left-handed hitting shortstop should be back in the Texas lineup in the coming days.
Rangers placed SS Corey Seager on the 10-day injured list with a right hamstring strain.
MLB.com’s Kennedi Landry reports it’s expected to be a relatively short stint for Seager after an MRI on Wednesday revealed a mild hamstring strain. The 30-year-old shortstop suffered the injury during Tuesday’s showdown against the Athletics. It’ll be veteran defensive standout Nick Ahmed taking his spot on the roster, but we’re anticipating Josh Smith taking over at shortstop during his absence.
