Corey Seager Sent for MRI on Injured Back
Texas Rangers shortstop Corey Seager (back) will undergo an MRI on his back, per Jeff Wilson of DLLS Sports. Seager has not played since Wednesday as he deals with back spasms. While the 32-year-old has not yet been placed on the injured list, it appears the team has at least some level of concern that there could be a structural issue in Seager's back. Prior to the injury being announced, Seager was in the midst of a brutal 0-for-29 stretch at the plate. His overall numbers for the season are way down as well, as he's hitting .179/.286/.353 with seven home runs, 20 RBI, 22 runs scored, and one stolen base across 182 plate appearances. Seager has never had a strikeout rate above 21.4% in any of his 11 MLB seasons, but he's struck out in 27.5% of his trips to the plate so far in 2026. Rangers utility man Ezequiel Duran is making his third straight start at shortstop in Seager's place on Sunday against the Houston Astros.
