4/02/24 Josh Jung breaks his right wrist after homering, driving in 4 in Rangers' 9-3 win over Rays. Texas slugger Josh Jung homered and drove in four runs before leaving Monday night’s 9-3 victory over the Tampa Bay Rays with a fractured right wrist. The All-Star third baseman left in the ninth inning when he was struck by a pitch he swung at and missed. In a rematch of clubs that met during the World Series champion Rangers’ postseason run last fall, Dane Dunning limited the Rays to Jose Siri’s third-inning double until Richie Palacios homered with one out in the seventh. Jung ruined right-hander Ryan Pepiot’s debut for the Rays, who acquired the 26-year-old in an offseason trade that sent Tyler Glasnow to the Los Angeles Dodgers.

3/06/24 Rangers Josh Jung Swinging Bat, But Running Remains Issue. The All-Star, who strained his left calf on Feb. 16, is scheduled to face minor league pitchers in a live camp game on the backfields Wednesday morning, a good sign but far from an automatic elevation to a full return from the injury. Rangers manager Bruce Bochy said the training staff would evaluate Jung's calf after the Wednesday workout before progressing him deeper into action. "Josh is going to hit off some minor leaguers in a [backfield] game where he can just keep jumping in [the box] and we'll see," Bochy said said. Of course, even if he's able to hit if running remains an issue, his full return to the lineup will continue to be pushed back.

3/04/24 Rangers position preview: What's next for 3B Josh Jung after rookie success. Ever since Hall of Fame-bound Adrian Beltre retired after the 2018 season, the Texas Rangers had been hard pressed to find a steady solution at third base. Certainly nobody could immediately fill the immense shoes of inarguably the most joyful player of the modern era, but having stability at a premium defensive position with a powerful bat that is required of the hot corner was proving a difficult ask for a franchise that has enjoyed a strong lineage at third base. After Beltre retired, the Rangers went through Asdrubal Cabrera, Isiah Kiner-Falefa, Brock Holt, Charlie Culberson, and Andy Ibanez in Beltre's stead with no long term answers found.
