Rangers shortstop Corey Seager dealing with mild concussion, says manager Skip Schumaker
Manager Skip Schumaker said Seager is day-to-day after concussion tests, and the Rangers may place him on the seven-day concussion injury list.
- Texas Rangers shortstop Corey Seager is out of the lineup for the third consecutive game, as manager Skip Schumaker revealed he is dealing with "mild concussion symptoms" following a home plate collision last Thursday.
- The collision occurred during a game against the Kansas City Royals when Seager collided with catcher Carter Jensen while attempting to score from first base on a double by Brandon Nimmo.
- Although Seager initially stayed in the game and homered, Schumaker reported on Friday that the shortstop experienced lingering rib and jaw pain before undergoing concussion protocol tests.
- The Rangers have not yet placed Seager on the injured list, though they recently moved outfielders Evan Carter and Michael Helman to the IL, leaving open a seven-day concussion list option.
- Schumaker expressed hope that Seager can return during the upcoming homestand, which begins Monday in Arlington against the Minnesota Twins as the team manages his workload.
