Rangers' Josh Jung: Extends hit streak
Jung went 1-for-4 with a double and two RBI in Monday's 8-1 win over the Athletics.
Jung extended a hit streak to five games with an eighth-inning double that drove in the Rangers' final two runs. A rocky start to the season has given way to modest production since Jung's return from a two-game absence due to an undisclosed injury. Since rejoining the starting nine, Jung is 5-for-13 with two doubles, two RBI and three runs over the last four contests.

Rangers' Josh Jung: Back in starting nine
Jung (undisclosed) will start at third base and bat ninth Friday against the Dodgers.
The Rangers kept Jung on the bench for their last two games to give him time to recover after manager Skip Schumaker said the 28-year-old had been "a little banged up." Now seemingly healthy, Jung will look to stay hot after going 6-for-15 at the plate across his last five games.

Rangers' Josh Jung: Remaining on bench Wednesday
Jung (undisclosed) is out of the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Mariners.
Jung will hit the bench for the third time in four games, with manager Skip Schumaker noting Tuesday that the 28-year-old is "a little banged up." Ezequiel Duran will pick up another start at third base in his stead, but Jung is expected to be available to play, if needed.

Rangers' Josh Jung: Banged up
Manager Skip Schumaker said that Jung, who is out of the lineup for Tuesday's game against the Mariners, is "a little banged up," Shawn McFarland of The Dallas Morning News reports.
It's unclear when the issue first surfaced for Jung, but he finds himself on the bench Tuesday for the second time in the Rangers' past three games. The 28-year-old is expected to be available off the bench, so it appears the unspecified injury isn't a serious concern.

Rangers' Josh Jung: Not starting Tuesday
Jung is out of the lineup for Tuesday's game against the Mariners.
Despite going 2-for-3 during Monday's series opener versus Seattle, Jung will sit Tuesday for the second time in Texas' past three games. He's struggled to get on track this year with a .188 average (6-for-32) through nine games, and he's still in search of his first extra-base hit. Ezequiel Duran will step in at third base and bat ninth.

Rangers' Josh Jung: Out of Sunday's lineup
Jung isn't starting Sunday versus Cincinnati.
Jung will get the day off after starting seven of Texas' first eight games. He's struggled to begin the campaign, slashing .143/.172/.143 with one RBI and a 1:8 BB:K. Ezequiel Duran is manning the hot corner for Texas on Sunday.

Rangers' Josh Jung: Logs first hits
Jung went 2-for-4 with an RBI in Wednesday's 8-3 loss to Baltimore.
Jung, who returned to the lineup after a getting a day off Tuesday, logged his first hits of the season and drove in his first run. He was hitless over his first 18 at-bats before a run-scoring single in the fourth inning.

Rangers' Josh Jung: Getting Tuesday off
Jung is out of the lineup for Tuesday's game against the Orioles.
The third baseman will get a day to rest after going 0-for-17 with seven strikeouts to open the campaign. Ezequiel Duran will start at third base in place of Jung on Tuesday as Texas goes up against Baltimore righty Zach Eflin.

Rangers' Josh Jung: Extends hitless run
Jung went 0-for-5 with two strikeouts in Monday's 5-2 win over the Orioles.
Jung is having a rough start to the regular season. After going 0-for-12 in the season-opening series in Philadelphia, the third basemen extended the futility in Baltimore to 17 at-bats without a hit. His hard-hit rate (30 percent) and average exit velocity (79.9 mph) are worrisome. It could be that he needs time after getting only 18 plate appearances in spring training due to an adductor issue.

Rangers' Josh Jung: Productive since return
Jung went 3-for-3 with a home run, two RBI and an additional run scored in Wednesday's spring game against Kansas City.
Jung has wielded a potent bat since his return Monday after missing a little more than two weeks with an adductor strain. After a triple and run scored Monday, the third baseman added three more hits and belted his first Cactus League home run (417 feet). Texas manager Skip Schumaker believes there's still enough runway left for Jung to be ready for Opening Day, per Shawn McFarland of the Dallas Morning News.

Rangers' Josh Jung: Back in lineup Monday
Jung (adductor) will start at third base and bat sixth in Monday's Cactus League game against the White Sox.
Jung hadn't played at any point in March while recovering from an adductor strain, but he's made enough progress in recent days to make his return to the Rangers' spring lineup. With 10 more days to go before Opening Day, expect Jung to get plenty of at-bats over the upcoming week.

Rangers' Josh Jung: Still not ready for games
Jung (groin) remained out of the Rangers' Cactus League lineup Thursday against the Athletics, Evan Grant of The Dallas Morning News reports.
Jung had been targeting Thursday for his return to action after missing the past two weeks with a Grade 1 adductor strain, but he's not quite ready yet. Rangers manager Skip Schumaker said Thursday of Jung's injury that "it wasn't just progressing like we hoped," but the third baseman could be ready for games in "a couple of days." Schumaker remains "optimistic" about Jung's availability for Opening Day, but the 28-year-old can't afford to be delayed any further.

Rangers' Josh Jung: Targeting return Thursday
Jung (groin) ran the bases Tuesday and is hoping to return to Cactus League play Thursday versus the Athletics, Evan Grant of The Dallas Morning News reports.
Jung has been shelved since late February after being diagnosed with a Grade 1 adductor strain. When coming back from a leg injury, running the bases is typically the final hurdle one needs to clear, so Jung appears to be in a good spot to return to action and avoid a stint on the injured list. If healthy, Jung is expected to open the season as the Rangers' primary third baseman.

Jung (hamstring) began fielding groundballs Thursday, Shawn McFarland of The Dallas Morning News reports.
Thursday marked the first time Jung had done any work in the field since being diagnosed with a Grade 1 adductor strain Saturday. The Rangers don't have a timeline in place for the 28-year-old third baseman, but there's a decent chance he returns in time for Opening Day.

Rangers' Josh Jung: Diagnosed with Grade 1 strain
Jung was diagnosed with a Grade 1 adductor strain Saturday, Kennedi Landry of MLB.com reports.
Jung had been expected to resume playing in Cactus League games this weekend, but he will now be shut down for roughly 10 days following the results of his tests. Assuming the Rangers don't receive any more unexpected news, the 28-year-old still could have enough time to make a full recovery before Opening Day.

Rangers' Josh Jung: Day-to-day with hamstring tightness
Rangers manager Skip Schumaker said Jung is dealing with "a little something" in his hamstring and is day-to-day, Kennedi Landry of MLB.com reports.
Schumaker said Jung would likely be back in the lineup for Friday's Cactus League matchup with the White Sox. With Jung idle Thursday, Ezequiel Duran is making the start at third base. Jung appeared in 131 regular-season games last season and slashed .251/.294/.390 with 14 home runs, 61 RBI, 53 runs scored, four stolen bases and a 27:129 BB:K across 511 trips to the plate.
