Rangers activate Corey Seager off injured list ahead of Astros series

The Texas Rangers have activated Corey Seager from the injured list before their game against the Houston Astros. Seager, who has battled multiple injuries this season, returns after missing time due to lower back inflammation and a concussion. He has struggled at the plate this year, batting.182 with 10 home runs in 219 plate appearances. His return is timely as the Rangers, ranked 16th in team OPS, gear up for a crucial three-game series against the Astros, who are just half a game behind them in the American League West standings.
