Josh Jung placed on injured list as Rangers prepare for series
Summary

Josh Jung has been placed on the injured list due to a strained left calf, announced Saturday, July 25, ahead of a critical series for the Texas Rangers against the Seattle Mariners. Jung's injury occurred while legging out a single on Tuesday, and he could not run at 50 percent effort in subsequent days. The Rangers, who currently have 14 players on the injured list, hope Jung will return for next weekend's series in Houston. Meanwhile, they continue to wait on Corey Seager's status, as he is also recovering from injury and scheduled for a live batting practice session soon. Josh Smith has been recalled from Triple-A Round Rock to fill in at third base.
