Rangers' Josh Jung Sidelined at Least 10 Days With Grade 1 Adductor Strain

Justin Foscue has a right hamstring strain, and the club says his Opening Day bid remains on track.

Overview

  • An MRI confirmed Jung’s Grade 1 adductor strain after he was scratched from a Feb. 26 Cactus League game.
  • Manager Skip Schumaker expressed confidence Jung could return sooner than a referenced 14-day benchmark.
  • Jung had opened spring 2-for-6 with encouraging exit velocities, drawing praise for his camp work.
  • The Rangers will hold Jung out of baseball activities for a minimum of 10 days as spring evaluations continue.
  • Foscue will also miss at least 10 days, with Schumaker noting he will lose at-bats but still has time in camp to compete for a roster spot.
