Seager Out Again After Collision

Corey Seager’s hot streak is cut short as he heads to the IL with concussions after a brutal home plate collision in Kansas City, just days after returning from a back injury — and just as he was starting to shake off a career-worst slump.

Smith, now back and showing power, slots in as Seager’s replacement, while Cody Freeman and Nicky Lopez handle second and shortstop respectively, as the Rangers navigate a shifting infield puzzle.
