A foot injury yesterday. 3:40pm: The Rangers are placing shortstop on the 10-day injured list due to hip discomfort. Manager informed members of the clubs beat today, including Shawn McFarland of the Dallas Morning News ( ). Young said its too early to tell if Seager is done for the year or if he will require surgery. Outfielder will be selected to take Seagers place on the roster and the club will need to make a corresponding move to open a 40-man spot for Fabian. Theres not much information about Seagers injury or how severe it is, but it makes sense for the club to be cautious at this point. At 66-73, the Rangers are 8.5 games back of a playoff spot, making them effectively done for the year. That gives the club little incentive to push Seager through any injury, even if its minor. Perhaps he can get into a few more contests before the season is out but its also po sible that the club just decides to shut him down at some point. The Rangers will need to cover the shortstop position until Seager returns or po sibly for the remainder of the schedule. , and have each received starts there in the past week as the club has already been backing off Seagers playing time. All three of those guys can play the outfield as well, so the club will add to their options on the gra s by adding Fabian. The 26-year-old gets added to a major league roster for the first time. He was once a notable prospect in the Giants system, as that club gave him a $500K bonus when signing him out of the Dominican Republic in 2014. He posted some good results at the lower levels of the minors and ranked him #8 in the Giants system going into 2017. However, he struggled in subsequent seasons and fell off the prospect radar. By the end of 2021, he had topped out at Double-A and qualified for minor league free agency. He has signed minor league deals with the Rangers in three straight years now and has generally been performing around league average at the Triple-A level. That includes 116 games for Round Rock this year with 17 home runs and a .270/.343/.462 batting line. In the strong offensive environment of the Pacific Coast League, that line translates to a 99 wRC+. He can play all three outfield spots and will be making his major league debut as soon as he gets into a game. Casey Legumina Jersey
