Rangers Swap Relievers on IL and Lose Another to Surgery While Starter Leiter Is Recovering From His
The Texas Rangers placed Jakob Junis on the 15-day injured list due to a right hip impingement and activated Chris Martin, who was recovering from a right shoulder issue, as part of reliever roster changes.
Jalen Beeks will have season-ending surgery for a flexor tendon strain after experiencing elbow soreness during rehab, as announced by Rangers president Chris Young.
Beeks was sidelined with lower back spasms since June 10, delaying his anticipated return.
Right-Handed starter Jack Leiter is recovering well from arthroscopic ankle surgery performed on June 23 and is hopeful to pitch again this season, though the timeline is uncertain.
