(Photo by Chris Bernacchi/Diamond Images via Getty Images) | Diamond Images/Getty Images Texas Rangers outfielder Wyatt Langford has been placed on the 10 day injured list, the team announced today. To take his place on the active roster, the Rangers have recalled outfielder Alejandro Osuna from AAA Round Rock. In addition, the team announced that pitcher Marc Church, who was designated for assignment last week, has cleared waivers and been outrighted to Round Rock. Langford left yesterday’s game after two at bats due to soreness in his right forearm. After an MRI today, he has been diagnosed with a grade one flexor strain. Per the beats, Langford was optimistic that he will be able to return after the 10 day minimum. This is the third year in a row Langford has landed on the injured list early in the season. In 2024, he went on the i.l. in early May due to a hamstring strain, and in 2025, he went on the injured list in early April due to an oblique strain. Osuna, 23, had 63 games in the majors for the Rangers in 2025, slashing .212/.313/.278. He has gotten off to a slow start at AAA this year, slashing .262/.355/.354 in 17 games. , who has played well of late, would seem likely to get the bulk of the playing time in left field while Langford is sidelined, though the Rangers could opt to sit some and put Duran at second to get Osuna some playing time. As for Church, his star has fallen significantly since thirteen months ago, when he broke camp with the Rangers. One would think that someone would have put in a claim on him, but apparently not. He will remain in Round Rock for the time being.
