The Texas Rangers activated one of their young sluggers off the 10-day injured list on Tuesday, as expected. The Rangers brought back third baseman Josh Jung, who was on the IL with neck spasm, in advance of Tuesday’s game with the Chicago Cubs.

CHICAGO - The Rangers aren’t taking any chances with minor injuries turning into more major nuisances. Though Wyatt Langford considers his right oblique strain “very minor,” the Texas Rangers have decided to place him on the 10-day IL to prevent it from lingering or turning into a more significant injury.

The Texas Rangers activated third baseman Josh Jung off the 10-day injury list on Tuesday after the Texas Tech product had been sidelined with neck spasms. The Rangers made several other moves, optioning RHP Gerson Garabito and infielder Ezequiel Durán to Triple-A Round Rock.

The baseball gods giveth and the baseball gods taketh away. A day after Rangers third baseman Josh Jung returned from an IL stint due to neck spasms, outfielder Wyatt Langford was placed on the 10-day injured list with a Grade 1 right oblique strain.

Langford (oblique) is not in the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Cubs. Langford had to be removed from Tuesday's contest with right oblique tightness. There's no word yet on the results of an MRI on Lanford's side,

In comes Josh Jung, out goes Langford, one of the Rangers’ only consistent hitters in the season’s early going.
