• Rangers' Josh Jung: Goes yard Monday

  09/16/2025 • By RotoWire

  Jung went 2-for-4 with a two-run home run in Monday's 6-3 loss to the Astros. This was Jung's first homer over 13 games in September, and he's batting just .184 (9-for-49) this month. The third baseman's blast tied the game at 2-2 in the fifth inning. Jung had six multi-hit efforts over his last eight contests in August, so the slowdown in September is discouraging. He's at a .251/.294/.394 slash line with 14 homers, 57 RBI, 48 runs scored and four stolen bases over 120 games this season.

• Rangers' Josh Jung: Stays hot with three more hits

  08/31/2025 • By RotoWire

  Jung went 3-for-5 with two doubles, two RBI and two runs scored in Saturday's 9-3 win over the Athletics. Jung delivered RBI doubles in the third and seventh innings. The third baseman has rattled off three straight three-hit games, and he's batting .517 (15-for-29) during his seven-game hitting streak. He's up to a .257/.302/.395 slash line, 12 home runs, 51 RBI, 42 runs scored, 15 doubles and four stolen bases over 106 contests this season, and his recent strong play should keep him locked into a starting role.

• Rangers' Josh Jung: Another three-hit effort

  08/30/2025 • By RotoWire

  Jung went 3-for-4 with one run scored in Friday's 5-2 win over the Athletics. Jung has hit safely in six straight games, and four of those have been multi-hit efforts. He's starting to turn things around after struggling for most of August -- even with the recent surge, he's batting a modest .268 (19-for-71) over 22 contests this month. On the season, he's at a .253/.299/.387 slash line with 12 home runs, 49 RBI, 40 runs scored and four stolen bases through 105 games.

• Rangers' Josh Jung: Extends hit streak to five

  08/28/2025 • By RotoWire

  Jung went 3-for-6 with a double, an RBI and a run scored in Wednesday's 20-3 win over the Angels. Jung was about fifth on the list of offensive stars in the game, but the Rangers understand how important it is for the third baseman to get his groove back. A wrist injury that derailed him in 2024 has been followed by a season-long slump in 2025, when he was demoted to the minors for a stretch in July. Wednesday was his sixth straight start after getting a four-game breather last week to reset. The three-hit performance extended a hit streak to five games, during which Jung has gone 9-for-23 (.391) with a home run, a double and four RBI.
