The Texas Rangers have experienced an inconsistent season, with injuries playing a major role in their struggles, including the recent 10-day injured list placement of Wyatt Langford due to a Grade 1 right forearm flexor strain.
According to MLB.com’s Kennedi Landry, there is optimism that Langford could return soon, with a potential activation target set for this weekend depending on how conditions unfold.
However, weather in Texas could complicate his rehab process, potentially limiting his ability to get proper live at-bats before being activated, though the team is exploring multiple alternatives to keep him on track.
Manager Skip Schumaker indicated that while the weekend remains the goal for his return, flexibility may be required if conditions delay his preparation.
Before the injury, Langford was showing strong form at the plate, and the Rangers are hopeful he can quickly regain that momentum once he returns to help stabilize their lineup moving forward.
