Wyatt Langford has "Small Strain," Hoping to Miss Only 2-3 Days
Texas Rangers outfielder Wyatt Langford (quadriceps) said he has a "small strain" in his quadriceps muscle, according to Shawn McFarland of The Dallas Morning News. Langford thinks he'll miss just two to three days, and he could pinch hit on Sunday, but he'll avoid the injured list for now. The former first-rounder left Friday's loss to the Los Angeles Dodgers early due to quadriceps tightness, and he's considered day-to-day for now. It's good news, but given Langford's pretty lengthy injury history already in the big leagues, it wouldn't be a surprise if the Rangers play it safe and put Langford on the 10-day injured list if he's not feeling better in a couple of days. Ezequiel Duran is making the start in left field for the Rangers in Game 2 of the series against the Dodgers on Saturday, but Sam Haggerty could also see playing time in left for Texas for however long Langford is out. The 24-year-old has gotten off to an ice-cold start in 2026, going 9-for-53 (.170) with a homer, three RBI, four runs scored, a stolen base, one walk, and 13 strikeouts in 13 games played. Langford's power/speed upside makes him a top-25 fantasy outfielder when he's healthy, though.
