Rangers place Seager on 10-day IL with back inflammation

The Texas Rangers placed shortstop Corey Seager on the 10-day injured list (retroactive to May 15) with lower back inflammation, recalling Michael Helman. Seager is hitting .179/.286/.353 this season and underwent an MRI with a specialist visit; a return in about a week is possible. With Seager out and Josh Smith on the IL, Texas has used Ezequiel Durán at short and Justin Foscue at second, though Foscue is slumping in a small sample. The club may lean on Helman or other in-house options while Seager recovers.

"Rangers' Corey Seager Undergoes Sports Hernia Surgery, Expected to Miss Most of Spring Training"

Texas Rangers' shortstop Corey Seager underwent sports hernia surgery after suffering the injury during the postseason, with the club hopeful for his return by Opening Day. Despite his strong performance in the playoffs, the issue didn't improve over the winter, leading to the surgical intervention. The Rangers are unlikely to add an extra infielder as a result and will rely on incumbent players to cover the position if Seager misses any time. Injuries and recoveries will be a key storyline for the defending champions in 2024, with Max Scherzer, Jacob deGrom, and Tyler Mahle also facing recovery timelines.
