Josh Jung Remains Out on Wednesday
Texas Rangers third baseman Josh Jung remains sidelined for Wednesday's contest against the division-rival Seattle Mariners, per MLB.com. Ezequiel Duran will start at third base and is batting ninth for the Rangers against Mariners right-hander Bryan Woo. It's the third time in the last four games that Jung will start on the bench, with manager Skip Schumaker saying on Tuesday that Jung is "a little banged up." The 28-year-old has been banged up for much of his young career in the big leagues, although he still offers plenty of power upside from the right side of the plate when he's on the diamond. The former eighth overall pick in 2019 out of Texas Tech has not looked great offensively to begin his fifth year in the majors, going 6-for-32 (.188) with no homers, an RBI, one walk, and nine strikeouts in nine contests. Jung is still Texas' primary option at third, but his slow start and more injury issues should have fantasy managers a little worried.
