Wyatt Langford Pulled Early on Tuesday With Forearm Tightness
Texas Rangers outfielder Wyatt Langford (forearm) was removed early from Tuesday's game against the Pittsburgh Pirates in the fifth inning with right-forearm tightness, according to Jeff Wilson of All City DLLS. Langford went 0-for-1 at the plate with a walk and a strikeout before leaving. He was replaced in left field and in the two-hole in the batting order by Ezequiel Duran. It's yet another injury for Langford, but until we know more about the severity of his forearm injury, fantasy managers should consider him day-to-day. Check back on Wednesday to see if Langford is available to return versus the Pirates. Coming into Tuesday's action, the former fourth overall pick in 2023 out of the University of Florida was hitting .241/.268/.367 with a .635 OPS, one home run, four RBI, nine runs scored, and two stolen bases in 79 at-bats. It's been a disappointing start for Langford, but he's still very appealing in fantasy for his power/speed upside if he can stay healthy. Duran would likely be the biggest beneficiary of playing time in Texas' outfield if Langford winds up on the injured list.
