Jung (wrist) played catch on the field prior to Wednesday's game against the Guardians, Evan Grant of The Dallas Morning News reports. Playing catch amounts to Jung's first known baseball activity since he underwent surgery April 2 to address a fractured right wrist. While being able to throw with his surgically repaired wrist is a step in the right direction, hitting high-velocity pitching will be the real test for Jung. He still looks to be a week or more away from doing that, as Rangers general manager Chris Young previously said that Jung is facing an 8-to-10-week recovery timeline after more damage to his wrist than expected was detected when surgery was performed, per MLB.com. Fantasy managers shouldn't bank on Jung returning from the IL until around early-to-mid June in a best-case scenario.... See More ... See Less

Rangers' Josh Jung: Having wrist checked out Friday
Jung will have his fractured right wrist examined Friday, Jeff Wilson of RangersToday.com reports. Progress on Jung's healing will be evaluated, and the hope is that he will get a better idea during the exam as to what a potential timeline for a return could look like. Jung had surgery on the wrist in early April, and the rough timetable provided at the time was 8-to-10 weeks.... See More ... See Less -
Rangers' Josh Jung: Moved to 60-day IL
Jung (wrist) was placed on the 60-day injured list Monday. Jung is expected to miss the next 8-to-10 weeks while on the mend from a broken right wrist, so this move simply clears a spot on the 40-man roster while he rehabs. Jung could return to action by the end of May if all goes according to plan.... See More ... See Less -
Rangers' Josh Jung: Timetable now 8-to-10 weeks
Rangers general manager Chris Young said Wednesday that Jung will likely be sidelined 8-to-10 weeks after more extensive damage than expected was found during surgery Tuesday to repair his fractured right wrist, Kennedi Landry of MLB.com reports. Jung's initial timetable was estimated at six weeks following X-rays on the wrist, but unfortunately, he'll require more recovery time following a procedure that was more invasive than anticipated. The third baseman likely won't return until late May now in a best-case scenario and will be a candidate to move to the 60-day injured list at some point down the road. Josh Smith and Ezequiel Duran have both received a start at third base since Jung went down with the injury, and Justin Foscue is also an option at the hot corner.... See More ... See Less -
Rangers' Josh Jung: Out six weeks after wrist surgery
Rangers general manager Chris Young said that Jung will be sidelined for six weeks after having surgery Tuesday to repair his fractured right wrist, Stefan Stevenson of SI FanNation reports. Jung suffered the injury on a hit-by-pitch Monday and the surgery was performed by the same doctor who repaired his fractured thumb last August. Josh Smith received the first start at third base in Jung's place Tuesday, but Ezequiel Duran and Justin Foscue will also be in the mix at the hot corner.... See More ... See Less -
Rangers' Josh Jung: Placed on IL with fractured wrist
Jung was placed on the 10-day injured list by the Rangers on Tuesday with a fractured right wrist, Jeff Wilson of RangersToday.com reports. Jung suffered the unfortunate injury when he was hit by a pitch in Monday's game against the Rays. There is no timetable for the 26-year-old's return at this point, but he will certainly be on the shelf for several weeks. Josh Smith is getting the first shot to fill in at third base for Jung on Tuesday, but Ezequiel Duran and Justin Foscue will also be in the mix.... See More ... See Less -
Rangers' Josh Jung: Removed following HBP
Jung left Monday's game against the Rays after being hit by a pitch, Kennedi Landry of MLB.com reports. The location and extent of Jung's injury are unclear. Ezequiel Duran would be in line for work at the hot corner if Jung is forced to miss additional time.... See More ... See Less -
Rangers' Josh Jung: Back in field
Jung (calf) is starting at third base in Saturday's Cactus League game against the Royals. Jung hasn't played in a Cactus League game this spring after straining his left calf during fielding drills in February. He was able to serve as the designated hitter in a minor-league game Monday, and the Rangers seem to be comfortable testing his calf in the field Saturday. Assuming Jung avoids any setbacks and doesn't aggravate his calf during the game, he should be set to start at the hot corner on Opening Day.... See More ... See Less -
Rangers' Josh Jung: Serves as DH
Jung (calf) served as the designated hitter in a minor-league game Monday, Kennedi Landry of MLB.com reports. In order to get as many at-bats as possible, Jung was the leadoff batter in every inning and went 2-for-4 with two singles. Texas manager Bruce Bochy is hopeful Jung will be ready to go by Opening Day and sees the third baseman playing in two exhibition game against the Red Sox at Globe Life Field on March 25-26. The manager has not ruled out a start in a Cactus League game before the Rangers break camp.... See More ... See Less -
Rangers' Josh Jung: Set to play in late exhibitions
Rangers manager Bruce Bochy said Monday that Jung (calf) is expected to play in the team's final two exhibition games March 25 and 26 versus the Red Sox at Globe Life Field, Jeff Wilson of RangersToday.com reports. If those two games wind up being the only two exhibition contests that Jung plays, it may not be sufficient enough for him to gain clearance for Opening Day on March 28 against the Cubs. However, the Rangers don't appear to have ruled out Jung being ready for the start of the regular season. Jung has been slowed by a left calf strain in camp, and while a recent MRI showed healing, he hasn't yet been cleared for running.... See More ... See Less -
Rangers' Josh Jung: Not ready for running program
Jung underwent an MRI on Friday that showed improvement in his left calf, but not enough to ramp up his running program, Jeff Wilson of RangersToday.com reports. While his recovery has been trending in a mostly positive direction, Jung will not be upgraded to full activities anytime soon. He will be working within a tight window to make Opening Day. Jung slashed .266/.315/.467 for 23 home runs and 70 RBI over 515 plate appearances in 2023.... See More ... See Less -
Rangers' Josh Jung: Cleared for baseball work
Manager Bruce Bochy said Sunday that Jung (calf) has been cleared to resume baseball activities, Kennedi Landry of MLB.com reports. The 26-year-old has been sidelined since he suffered a left calf strain in mid-February, but he's now ready for baseball work and is taking swings in the batting cage Sunday. Jung should ramp up his activities over the next week and could make his spring debut before too long if he has no further issues with his calf.... See More ... See Less -
Rangers' Josh Jung: Out multiple weeks
Jung was diagnosed with a strained left calf Saturday, Evan Grant of The Dallas Morning News reports. Jung reported discomfort in his calf while fielding grounders Friday, and he is now set to miss at least two or three weeks before the team re-evaluates him. At that point, a better picture regarding Jung's status for Opening Day should be available.... See More ... See Less -
Rangers' Josh Jung: Hit streak going since return
Jung went 2-for-4 with a double and a run scored in Friday's 8-5 win over the Mariners. Other than an elevated strikeout rate --- seven strikeouts in 18 at-bats -- Jung hasn't missed a beat following a thumb injury that cost him six weeks. The rookie third baseman has hit safely in all four games since returning earlier this week, going 7-for-18 with a double, a home run, three RBI and four runs scored.... See More ... See Less -
Rangers' Josh Jung: Could be activated Monday
Jung (thumb) will rejoin the Rangers on Monday and could be activated from the 10-day injured list ahead of the team's series opener with the Red Sox after an encouraging weekend of rehab, Shawn McFarland of The Dallas Morning News reports. "He had a really good day yesterday, a really good day," Rangers manager Bruce Bochy said. "A lot of improvement from the day before as far as comfort, seeing the ball, hard contact." Jung, who worked out at the Rangers' complex in Arizona this weekend, faced live pitching and played a three-inning simulated game Saturday. He'll fly back to Texas on Sunday, rejoin the club on Monday and be further evaluated. Jung met with Arizona-based hand specialist Dr. Don Sheridan on Thursday and was given full clearance to return to baseball activities. He's been sidelined since Aug. 7 with a fractured left thumb that he had surgically repaired.... See More ... See Less -
Rangers' Josh Jung: Could be activated Monday
Manager Bruce Bochy said Thursday that Jung (thumb) could be activated from the injured list ahead of Monday's series opener against the Red Sox, Evan Grant of The Dallas Morning News reports. There was some hope that Jung would be ready to return for the Rangers' three-game weekend series in Cleveland, but he still has a couple of small hurdles to clear in his recovery from Aug. 9 surgery to repair a fracture in his left thumb. Josh Smith and Jonathan Ornelas have been sharing time at third base for Texas over the last week.... See More ... See Less -
Rangers' Josh Jung: Nearing return
Texas manager Bruce Bochy said Jung (thumb) could return as early as next week's series against Cleveland beginning Friday, MLB.com reports. Bochy witnessed Jung take batting practice earlier this week and was impressed. "I saw him in the cage, swinging a bat, and I went, 'Whoa,'" Bochy said prior to Friday's game. "We all were shocked -- our trainer, our hitting guys." If Jung returns next Friday, that would beat the original six-week timeline.... See More ... See Less -
Rangers' Josh Jung: Hoping to take swings this week
Jung (thumb) is hoping to take dry swings before the end of this week, Evan Grant of The Dallas Morning News reports. Jung has been taking one-handed swings in the batting cage and fielded some grounders Monday. He's at least a couple weeks away from game action and is expected to need some rehab at-bats, so Jung isn't going to have much runway for regular-season contests. He's been out since early August with a left thumb fracture.... See More ... See Less -
Rangers' Josh Jung: Undergoes thumb surgery
Jung underwent surgery Wednesday to repair the fracture in his left thumb, Evan Grant of The Dallas Morning News reports. Hand specialist Dr. Don Sheridan inserted a plate and screws into the thumb to stabilize the fracture, which Jung sustained while trying to field a line drive this past Sunday against the Marlins. The power-hitting 25-year-old third baseman is expected to miss around six weeks, but the hope is that he can return to the Rangers' active roster before the end of the 2023 regular season.... See More ... See Less -
Rangers' Josh Jung: Leaves with thumb injury
Jung was removed from Sunday's game against the Marlins with an left thumb contusion, Kennedi Landry of MLB.comreports. He went 0-for-2 with a strikeout prior to his departure. Jung appeared to suffer an injury while fielding a line drive during the sixth inning and was replaced in the field for the following frame. The 25-year-old should be considered day-to-day heading into Monday's series opener at Oakland.... See More ... See Less
