Texas Rangers

Jacob deGrom

SP

Rangers manager Skip Schumaker said Friday that he's not sure whether deGrom will be available "right away" following the All-Star break, and a stint on the 15-day injured list is a real possibility for the veteran right-hander. No longer starting Sunday, DeGrom will enter the All-Star break with a 7-5 record across 18 starts along with a 3.49 ERA, 1.01 WHIP and 122:22 K:BB across 100.2 innings. The Rangers should have a clearer idea of deGrom's recovery timeline once he undergoes more tests.

Cody Bradford

SP

Coming back from an internal brace procedure, Bradford threw two innings in one rehab outing back in early April but had to be pulled off that assignment after a setback. The left-hander is ready to give it another try and is slated to pitch one inning for Corpus Christi this weekend. Assuming the Rangers still intend to bring Bradford back as a starting pitcher, he will need several weeks to rebuild his stamina.

Danny Jansen

C

Jansen noted that the plan for him moving forward is to throw every other day and see how his right forearm responds. He has been on the 10-day injured list since June 6 due to a right forearm strain, which has allowed Elias Diaz to surpass Kyle Higashioka as the Rangers' primary catcher in Jansen's absence.

Jakob Junis

RP

Junis, who was bothered by the hip over the last week, was placed on the injured list Saturday, retroactive to July 1. The club is hopeful he will only be down for the 15-day minimum.

Jalen Beeks

RP

Beeks landed on the 15-day injured list June 11 due to back spasms. He's apparently been dealing with an arm injury that is severe enough to require season-ending surgery, but it's unclear whether he'll be ready for the start of spring training in February. Beeks appeared in 29 regular-season games for the Rangers in 2026 and will end his campaign with a 3.81 ERA, 1.38 WHIP, six holds and a 21:8 K:BB across 26 innings.

Corey Seager

SS

Seager returned from the 7-day injured list last week after recovering from a concussion, but a back issue that will send him to the IL this time. The shortstop missed a month of action with a back injury earlier this season, but it's unclear at this point how long his upcoming stint on the shelf might last. Ezequiel Duran will likely serve as the Rangers' primary shortstop while Seager is sidelined.

Jordan Montgomery

SP

Montgomery was making the second start of his rehab assignment and was supremely efficient, recording his six outs on 20 pitches (15 strikes). Before coming off the 60-day injured list, Montgomery will likely need at least three more starts in the minors to increase his workload and convince the Rangers that he's a viable option for the big-league rotation. The left-hander is working his way back from a hybrid UCL reconstruction surgery, which he underwent last March.

Cody Freeman

3B

Freeman missed the first two months of the season with a lower-back fracture, though it's unclear if this injury is related. The utility player is 4-for-17 at the dish during his brief time in the majors this season.

Jack Leiter

SP

Leiter is expected back before the end of the season but is without an official recovery timeline, so it's safe to assume he'll be sidelined for the foreseeable future. The right-hander landed on the injured list over the weekend due to a posterior impingement in his right ankle, which he apparently has been pitching through for most of the campaign.

Michael Helman

CF

Helman was placed on the 10-day IL on June 14 after suffering multiple fractures in his right hand after being hit by a pitch. The Rangers decided to move the 30-year-old to the 60-day IL in order to free up a spot on the 40-man roster. Helman only appeared in 15 games for Texas this season, recording just 35 plate appearances. Jared Kelenic will replace Helman on the 40-man roster.

Robert Garcia

RP

The Rangers made a number of transactions Monday, and moving Garcia to the 60-day IL opened a spot on the 40-man roster for left-hander Robby Ahlstrom, who was called up from Triple-A Round Rock. Since being placed on the 15-day IL in late April due to left rotator cuff inflammation, Garcia has been doing light work in his throwing program since early May. He's not eligible to be reinstated from the IL until late June, but the Rangers will have a better sense of Garcia's recovery timeline once he progresses to throwing bullpen sessions.

Carter Baumler

RP

Baumler made three appearances while on his rehab assignment but experienced a setback and hasn't pitched since April 28. It's unclear when the right-hander will restart a throwing program.
