As the <a href="https://clutchpoints.com/rangers-news-why-corey-seager-could-upset-shohei-ohtani-al-mvp-chris-rose" rel="noopener">Rangers look to clinch</a> their spot in the playoffs, they’ll be adding plenty of power back into their lineup.</p><p>Both Josh Jung and Adolis Garcia <a href="https://www.mlb.com/news/rangers-injuries-and-roster-moves" rel="noopener">were activated</a> from the injured list, per MLB’s transaction page. <a href="https://clutchpoints.com/rangers-news-bruce-bochy-hopeful-injury-updates-adolis-garcia-josh-jung" rel="noopener">Jung had been dealing</a> with a left thumb fracture while Garcia had a right patellar tendon sprain.

The outfielder has already surpassed his career-high in home runs and is just one RBI from breaking his career-best.</p><p>The Rangers have dealt with numerous injuries this season and have still found a way to put themselves in the playoff hunt. Finally, some injury news has broke Texas’ way. With Josh Jung and Adolis Garcia back in the lineup, the Rangers will look to put the finishing touches on a strong regular season by earning a spot in the playoffs.</p><figure class="op-tracker"></figure></article>    </body></html>

Now, they are peaking at the perfect moment after just sweeping the Toronto Blue Jays in a pivotal four-game series. And <a href="https://twitter.com/JaredSandler/status/1702453421008179561?s=20" rel="noopener">help is on the way</a>.</p><p>“According to Bruce Bochy, the hope is that Josh Jung joins the team Monday when they return home to host Boston,” Jared Sandler of 105.3 The Fan and Bally Sports reported Tuesday. “Adolis Garcia is a possibility for next weekend against Seattle.”</p><p>Texas has battled a plethora of key injuries since the All-Star break, <a href="https://clutchpoints.com/rangers-news-texas-players-get-painfully-honest-on-crushing-max-scherzer-injury" rel="noopener">none more brutal</a> than Max Scherzer’s regular season-ending shoulder injury.

Slugger Adolis Garcia has been nursing a knee injury for the last week, while third baseman Josh Jung was placed on the injured list with a fracture in his thumb on Aug. 7.</p><p>Getting Jung back for the start of next week would be huge. The 25-year-old was a strong candidate for AL Rookie of the Year before getting hurt. He adds even more power to manager Bruce Bochy’s robust lineup (batting .274 with 22 home runs).</p><p>Garcia has had a rough second half of the 2023 MLB season but is still on his way to a career year (34 homers, 100 RBIs). He can change the trajectory of a game with one swing. If the Rangers are finally able to roll out a healthy lineup, then this year might end the way it started for this deep squad.</p><figure class="op-tracker"></figure></article>    </body></html>

And on Thursday night especially, with a game against AL West rival Houston Astros on the docket, the Rangers need to be on point. However, not helping matters at all is the unfortunate injury Adolis Garcia sustained during the top of the second inning of their 12-3 loss to the Astros.</p><p>Garcia <a href="https://twitter.com/TalkinBaseball_/status/1699582240928284692" rel="noopener">planted his right knee awkwardly</a> after chasing a deep fly ball from Michael Brantley; the worrying part, however, is that the Rangers right fielder clearly struggled to stand and had to receive attention from the team’s medical staff in the aftermath of the play.

But the Rangers should gain a clearer picture of Garcia’s physical condition not too long from now, as the right fielder <a href="https://twitter.com/JeffWilsonTXR/status/1699624879060881445" rel="noopener">will soon undergo</a> an MRI, per Jeff Wilson of Rangers Today.</p><p>With Garcia unable to finish the game, Rangers manager Bruce Bochy turned to Robbie Grossman to finish the game. Grossman went 0-3 as the Rangers were unable to keep up with the Astros’ offensive onslaught against Max Scherzer and the rest of their pitching corps.</p><p>Grossman hasn’t had the most productive 2023 season, so if Adolis Garcia needs to miss time with an apparent knee injury, the Rangers will have difficulties keeping up in the race for the division crown. Grossman has put up a slash line of .232/.321/.385 in 2023 with eight home runs, a far cry from Garcia’s <a href="https://clutchpoints.com/rangers-news-rangers-make-all-star-game-history-not-seen-in-47-years-after-adolis-garcia-addition" rel="noopener">top-tier production</a> from the position both at the plate and on the field.</p><p>Some fans believe that the Rangers may be better off giving Evan Carter, the team’s right field prospect currently in Triple-A, a chance if Garcia’s injury is more serious than anticipated. Carter slashed .284/.411/.451 in 462 plate appearances in Double-A, and he has, by and large, put up similar numbers with the Round Rock Express.</p><figure class="op-tracker"></figure></article>    </body></html>

Evidently, that was a sign of how much the hand was bothering Garcia, who was removed from the game in the top of the sixth inning, with Robbie Grossman taking his place.</p><p>The apparent injury to Garcia comes just hours after the Rangers placed star shortstop <a href="https://clutchpoints.com/rangers-news-corey-seager-injury-decision">Corey Seager on the injured list</a> with a sprained thumb, stemming from a slide during Friday’s game against the Dodgers.</p><p>Fortunately, the Rangers did get some good news, as the X-rays on Garcia’s hand came back negative, per Kennedi Landry of MLB.com.</p><p>Rangers fans can only hope that the injury to Garcia isn’t serious, as they’ve now dealt with injuries to the likes of relief pitcher Josh Sborz, starter Jon Gray, Seager and now Garcia in July.</p><p>Plus, <a href="https://clutchpoints.com/rangers-news-adolis-garcia-exits-early-hit-in-elbow">Garcia was plunked</a> on the elbow and exited a game just three days ago against the Tampa Bay Rays.</p><p>Yet, aside from Saturday’s blowout loss to the Dodgers, the Rangers have maintained their torrid pace atop the American League West, as they still have a three-game lead over the Houston Astros at the time of print.</p><p>But there’s no doubt that losing Garcia, owner of a career-best .848 OPS, for any period of time would hurt. The team is likely to provide further updates on Garcia after the game.</p><figure class="op-tracker"></figure></article>    </body></html>

The Texas Rangers may find themselves in that position as All-Star outfielder Adolis Garcia left Wednesday’s game after getting <a href="https://twitter.com/AlexFast8/status/1681764488025092096?s=20" rel="noopener">hit in the elbow</a> by a pitch.</p><p>It may have been his forearm, but Garcia was having trouble moving his arm at all when he exited the game.
