Jake Burger has emerged as a reliable option for the Texas Rangers as their designated hitter, demonstrating a comfort level that has impressed manager Bruce Bochy. Starting in this role against the Minnesota Twins, Burger's performance has included a notable .852 OPS in limited games, showcasing his potential to be an impactful contributor. Despite holding down the DH position, Bochy hinted at Burger's exceptional defensive skills at first base, suggesting he may return to that position soon. With Joc Pederson sidelined due to injury, Burger's current contributions are crucial to the team's offensive strategy, especially as they navigate a league-low OPS from their designated hitters this season.
