The Texas Rangers activated star shortstop Corey Seager from the 10-day injured list prior to Wednesday night’s game against the Toronto Blue Jays.
Seager has missed the past 16 games due to a right hamstring injury sustained on May 10 against the Detroit Tigers. The Rangers were 8-8 during his latest absence.
Seager is batting third and serving as the designated hitter on Wednesday.
The 31-year-old Seager has served two stints on the IL this season due to the same injury and has appeared in only five of the past 33 games.
Seager is batting .300 with six homers and 12 RBIs in 26 games this season.
The five-time All-Star is in his fourth season with the Rangers. He is batting .281 with 102 homers and 265 RBIs during his Texas tenure.
Seager was named World Series MVP for the second time in his career when he led the Rangers to the 2023 title. He finished second in American League MVP balloting that season after batting .327 with 33 homers and 96 RBIs
Texas optioned infielder Blaine Crim to Triple-A Round Rock in a corresponding move. Crim, 27, is hitless in 11 at-bats over five games for the Rangers this season.
