Corey Seager's hamstring woes continue to cast a shadow over the Texas Rangers' lineup. The star shortstop sat out against the Boston Red Sox, as the team carefully manages his right hamstring strain, which has plagued him since April. After a stint on the injured list, Seager's recent performances show he’s still working his way back, batting just 5 for 19 in his last four games.

Texas manager Bruce Bochy emphasized the importance of patience in handling Seager's recovery. With a history of similar injuries that have cost him numerous games since 2019, the Rangers are keen to avoid any setbacks. While Seager is a critical piece to their lineup, the Rangers are also optimistic about the impending return of catcher Kyle Higashioka, who has been sidelined since May 1.
