Rangers Turn to Smith as Jung Hits IL
Texas placed third baseman Josh Jung on the injured list with a right calf strain and recalled Josh Smith to bolster infield depth as the Rangers host Seattle in a pivotal AL West series. Jung is having a strong season (.294/.361/.441, 9 HR in 396 PA) but carries a -12 DRS at third this year, while Smith brings defensive improvement at the hot corner (9 DRS in 178 career games) though he’s struggled this year (70 wRC+ in 23 Triple-A games).
