Josh Jung Near Return After Calf Injury | Texas Rangers News

Josh Jung’s rehab assignment has officially begun, with the Texas Rangers third baseman hitting live batting practice without issue and now suiting up for Triple-A Round Rock. Out since July 25th with a strained left calf, Jung was on pace for a breakout season before his injury — posting nine homers and 35 RBIs. With just 17 games left in the season and the Rangers locked in a tight AL West race with the Astros, his return is urgent. He could be back in Arizona as early as Friday — and the team may need to make a roster move to make room. A timely comeback would be a major boost for a playoff-hungry squad.
