Texas Rangers shortstop Corey Seager (thumb) is coming off the 10-day injured list on Wednesday and will start against the visiting Chicago White Sox and right-hander Dylan Cease. Seager did not go on a minor-league rehab assignment, but nevertheless, fantasy managers will want to get him right back into their starting lineups. The 29-year-old former Dodger is a big reason why the Rangers have one of the most feared lineups in baseball this year. He's returning to a strong .350/.413/.631 slash line with a 1.044 OPS, 15 home runs, 29 doubles, 58 RBI and 47 runs scored in 298 plate appearances and 66 games played. The four-time All-Star is a must-start in fantasy lineups when he's playing for Texas.

Texas Rangers shortstop Corey Seager (thumb) received a cortisone injection on Saturday. The 29-year-old also got the splint from his thumb removed and is expected to start taking swings again early this week. Seager was forced to the 10-day injured list last Saturday, July 22, after spraining his thumb during a head-first slide in July 21's game. If all goes well, the four-time All-Star could reasonably return to the fold as early as next weekend after Seager initially envisioned around a two-week timetable. He is hitting an AL-high .350 with 15 home runs, 58 RBI, 47 runs scored, and one stolen base over 268 at-bats this year.

Texas Rangers shortstop Corey Seager (thumb) has been officially placed on the 10-day injured list on Saturday. As expected, Seager will miss some time after jamming his thumb while sliding into second base during Friday's game. Luckily, the MRI came back clean, so his IL stint shouldn't be too long. Ezequiel Duran should serve as the primary shortstop while Seager is out. Duran should be rostered in basically all fantasy formats right now. In a corresponding move, catcher Sam Huff has been recalled to take the spot on the active roster.

Texas Rangers shortstop Corey Seager (thumb) has gone off for an MRI on his sprained thumb, and while the results haven't come down yet, the team is anticipating him to go on the injured list. Well, that's a bummer to hear. Seager jammed his thumb while sliding into second base during Friday's loss to the Dodgers and the initial X-rays came back clean for structural damage. He was held out of Saturday's lineup as he was apparently still dealing with some soreness but it looks like the injury is worse than anticipated, hence the MRI. The Rangers are expected to provide an update before Saturday's game against the Dodgers. Stay tuned.

Texas Rangers shortstop Corey Seager (thumb) is not in the lineup for Saturday's contest against the Los Angeles Dodgers. The veteran shortstop sprained his thumb on a slide into second base during Friday's loss to the Dodgers so he'll be sitting out on Saturday and possibly Sunday as well. The good news is that the X-rays came back negative for any structural damage to his thumb, but he's likely dealing with some soreness. It'll be Ezequiel Duran covering shortstop in Seager's place against Bobby Miller and the Dodgers. Fantasy managers should consider Seager day-to-day for now.

Josh H. Smith pinch-ran for him. Seager received a relieving update following the contest, though, after X-rays returned negative.
