Corey Seager Going on Injured List With Back Injury
Texas Rangers general manager Chris Young said on Monday on 105.3 The Fan that shortstop Corey Seager (back) is going on the injured list, according to Shawn McFarland of The Dallas Morning News. "He's just too valuable and important to the rest of our season," Young said. "Our anticipation is this will give him the chance to reset mentally." The Rangers must not have liked what they saw after the 32-year-old veteran visited with a back specialist back in Arlington on Monday. With Seager battling a back injury over the weekend, Ezequiel Duran received two straight starts at the 6 and should remain there for Monday's series opener in Denver against the Colorado Rockies. The Rangers and fantasy managers are hoping that some time off for Seager will help him get right at the plate when he returns from the IL, as he has hit a lowly .179/.286/.353 with a .638 OPS, seven home runs, 20 RBI, 22 runs scored, and a steal in his 156 at-bats. The five-time All-Star hit 30-plus homers from 2022 to 2024, but he was also plagued by injuries last year and is more of an injury risk than ever.
