The Texas Rangers had to place yet another player on the injured list, but get the chance to see another young player get a crack at playing time.
The Texas Rangers have sent yet another player to the injured list.
Outfielder David Dahl crashed into the wall in right field in pursuit of a Jared Walsh home run during Tuesday night s game in Anaheim. After pulling Dahl in the seventh inning, manager Chris Woodward hoped the soreness wouldn t be too bad when the team came in on Wednesday morning.
That was not the case. During his pregame Zoom with the media, Woodward said Dahl was more sore than he was on Tuesday night. The Rangers now plan to do further evaluation to see if there is a cracked rib or something similar that could cause Dahl to miss extended time.
Rougie s Return to Texas
A couple of weeks ago, it looked like Rougned Odor was going to miss the trip to Texas and miss out on playing his former team. However, he has recovered from his knee injury and was activated by the Yankees ahead of Tuesday s game. It s weird being on the other side, Odor said. I had played here for all my career for this team. But I m here now and I m ready to go.
Odor spent parts of Monday and Tuesday reuniting with many of his former teammates and coaches during batting practice. Odor even carried on a conversation with Jon Daniels, the Rangers president of baseball operations.
