Rangers' Josh Jung: Plays in spring opener
Jung started at third base and went 0-for-2 in Friday's spring opener against Kansas City.
Jung had a pair of wrist surgeries in 2024 but enters Cactus League play with no limitations. He hopes this will be the first spring in four seasons in which good health is on his side. Jung was delayed last spring due to a calf strain after he tore his labrum in camp the previous year and suffered a stress fracture in his left foot the year before that. That doesn't include the fractured thumb he suffered midseason in 2023 and last year's wrist issues. He's been limited to 168 games of the 324 possible regular season games in his first full seasons in the majors. While the fractures can be chalked up to bad luck and Jung may not be considered injury prone, three significant fractures in a four-year window is an issue.

Rangers' Josh Jung: No limitations
Jung (wrist) has no physical limitations to start spring training, Shawn McFarland of the Dallas Morning News reports.
Jung had a pair of wrist surgeries in 2024 and was limited to only 188 plate appearances as a result. He reported that he was fully recovered in early January, but that has now been confirmed by his participation in baseball activity early in camp as Jeff Wilson of AllDLLS.com reported that Jung participated in batting practice this week.

Rangers' Josh Jung: Fully recovered from wrist surgery
Jung said Thursday that he's "full-go" after right wrist surgery and doesn't anticipate any restrictions during spring training, Jeff Wilson of AllDLLS.com reports.
Jung missed most of the first four months of the 2024 season following surgery to repair four fractures in the wrist. He then underwent a follow-up procedure in October to alleviate irritation in the tendon, which Jung said has made a huge difference. The third baseman has been swinging a bat without issue and appears poised to enter camp next month with a clean bill of health. If he can stay off the injured list, Jung could bounce back in 2025 and regain the form he flashed as a rookie in 2023, when he put up a .781 OPS with 23 home runs.

Rangers' Josh Jung: Undergoes another wrist surgery
Jung underwent tendon release surgery on his right wrist Tuesday, Jeff Wilson of AllDLLS.com reports.
Jung missed most of the first four months of the season after having surgery to repair a fracture in the same wrist, and he went back on the injured list in late September with recurring discomfort. The hope is that, following this most recent wrist surgery, he will be able to have a normal offseason after 3-4 weeks of rehab. Jung had a .719 OPS with seven homers over 46 games with the Rangers this season.

Rangers' Josh Jung: Placed on injured list
The Rangers placed Jung on the 10-day injured list Tuesday with right wrist tendinitis.
Jung's wrist has kept him sidelined for nearly a week, and his move to the IL will officially rule him out for the remainder of the season. With Ezequiel Duran away on paternity leave, Matt Duffy and Dustin Harris will come up from the minors and may see time at third base during the final week of the season.

Rangers' Josh Jung: Done for season
The Rangers are expected to place Jung (wrist) on the 10-day injured list, ending his season, Evan Grant of The Dallas Morning News reports.
Jung hasn't played since last Wednesday due to recurring discomfort in his surgically repaired right wrist. He is scheduled to be seen by a hand specialist Thursday in hopes of getting more information on the injury. Ezequiel Duran has started three of the last four games at third base and should continue to be the primary option at the position in the final week of the season. The Rangers are expected to promote either Dustin Harris or Sam Huff from the minors to take Jung's spot on the 28-man active roster.

Rangers' Josh Jung: Shut down with wrist soreness
Jung will be shut down for a couple days with discomfort in his right wrist near the area that he had surgery, Kennedi Landry of MLB.com reports.
Jonathan Ornelas will fill in for Jung at third base and bat ninth in Friday's game against the Mariners. Jung will head to Arizona to consult with his surgeon Monday, and the team is hoping he will be able to play during a season-ending road trip, which begins Tuesday in Oakland. With Texas out of playoff contention, it wouldn't be surprising if Jung doesn't return for the final week of the season.
