Jansen Back Behind the Plate | MLB News

Danny Jansen is making major strides in his recovery, back behind the plate catching live BP pitches and throwing to bases — all 33 pitches, feeling great and on track. Manager Skip Schumaker confirms his throwing speed is game-ready, and with strong hitting stats, the Rangers are optimistic. His return is crucial — he’s been sidelined since June with a forearm strain, and while Elias Diaz and Austin Wynns have stepped up admirably, Jansen’s presence is irreplaceable. Next up: a rehab assignment, likely his final hurdle before full return. With a two-year deal in his first season, he’s set to anchor the Rangers’ catching corps for years to come.
