Corey Seager Fantasy Stats

Texas Rangers shortstop Corey Seager (abdomen) and second baseman Marcus Semien (foot) have officially been shut down for the remainder of the season, according to manager Bruce Bochy. MLB.com's Kennedi Landry explains that it was a long shot for either Seager or Semien to return this year, but they were both still rehabbing for a potential return if the postseason was within reach. Going into play on Tuesday with less than a week left in the regular season, the Rangers are five games back of both the Cleveland Guardians and Houston Astros for the final wild-card spot in the American League, so the playoffs aren't in the cards this year for Texas. Injuries prevented Seager from having his fourth straight 30-homer season, but he still finishes with a strong .271/.373/.487 slash line, .860 OPS, 21 home runs, and 50 RBI in 102 games played. Semien finished under 150 games played for the first time in a full season since 2017, and he hit a disappointing .230 (108-for-470) with 15 home runs, 62 RBI, and 11 steals.

Texas Rangers shortstop Corey Seager (abdomen) did some light jogging on the field on Monday, reports Jeff Wilson of AllDLLS.com. He has been out since August 27 after being diagnosed with appendicitis and undergoing an appendectomy. Bruce Bochy stated that the 31-year-old was still pretty sore, but that soreness figures to be the only thing holding him back from a return to the lineup. Don't expect an activation within the next few days, but Seager should be able to see the field at some point to close out the season. He's had a successful campaign when he is healthy, batting .271 with a .373 on-base percentage and 21 home runs in 102 games.

Texas Rangers shortstop Corey Seager (appendix) is hopeful to begin taking swings with a baseball bat in the near future. The 31-year-old has been cleared to have his progression sped up as he is now physically able to rotate his body. If he can successfully swing a bat, his next step would be to participate in a live batting practice session, which could then lead to a return before the end of the season. The team has targeted the Rangers' final homestand, which begins on September 19, as a potential goal to see him back in the lineup. Due to this sudden progression, and assuming all goes well without a setback, he remains someone who can be stashed on teams on the injured list with the possibility of a final week of potential production at the plate.

Texas Rangers shortstop Corey Seager (appendix) may be able to return for the final seven to 10 days of the regular season, manager Bruce Bochy told reporters. Seager underwent an appendectomy on Aug. 28, but the 31-year-old has made enough progress that he could come back after sitting out for approximately three weeks. He'll hit the three-week mark when the Rangers open a series against the Miami Marlins on Sept. 19. This has been a frustrating season from a health standpoint for Seager, who has also endured two separate stints on the 10-day injured list because of right-hamstring strains. When healthy, though, the five-time All-Star has continued to produce. Over 102 games and 445 plate appearances, Seager has slashed .271/.373/.487 with 21 homers, 50 RBI, 61 runs, and three steals.

Texas Rangers shortstop Corey Seager (appendix) is hopeful that he will be able to return to the team this season. He underwent an appendectomy on August 28, and the belief at the time was that he would require most, if not all, of the remainder of the season from which to recover. However, on Friday, Seager spoke about how he intends to return to the field in 2025, citing how it's been done before by other baseball players in the past within a short enough timeframe. He also noted that his appendix did not burst, and as such, the situation was not a worst-case scenario. While Seager's optimism is encouraging to his situation, manager Bruce Bochy reiterated that things will be taken day by day. Seager can remain stashed on the injured list with the hope that he can contribute at some point this month.

The Texas Rangers officially placed shortstop Corey Seager (appendix) on the 10-day injured list (retroactive to Aug. 28) on Friday and selected the contract of infielder/outfielder Dylan Moore from Triple-A Round Rock in a corresponding move. The Rangers also moved outfielder Evan Carter (wrist) to the 60-day IL, ending his season. Seager had a successful appendectomy on Thursday and is expected to miss the next few weeks, but the Rangers are optimistic he'll be able to return before the end of the regular season. Moore will be a utility option off the bench for the team with Seager sidelined, while Josh Smith and Ezequiel Duran should split playing time at the 6. Duran is getting the start at short on Friday and is hitting second for the series opener against the Athletics. Seager needs to be stashed in all fantasy leagues, but there's also a possibility he may not make it back in 2025.

Texas Rangers shortstop Corey Seager (abdomen) underwent a successful appendectomy on Thursday. He was diagnosed with appendicitis and required emergency surgery. The expectation is that Seager will return at some point this season. The Rangers expect Seager to miss a few weeks, but he shouldn't be done for the 2025 campaign. Josh Smith figures to be the primary shortstop until Seager is ready to return. The Rangers haven't officially placed Seager on the injured list, but that move should happen this weekend.

Texas Rangers shortstop Corey Seager (appendix) was diagnosed with appendicitis and is undergoing an appendectomy on Thursday, according to general manager and president of baseball operations Chris Young. The Rangers aren't ruling out Seager playing again this year, but in the meantime, utility man Dylan Moore will join the active roster with Seager going on the injured list. For however long Seager is out of action, fantasy managers should expect Josh Smith to man the 6 in Texas. The 28-year-old offers positional versatility for fantasy lineups but not a whole lot else. In 121 games (480 plate appearances) in his fourth year in the big leagues, Smith is slashing .256/.333/.378 with nine home runs, 32 RBI, nine steals and 61 runs scored. Seager has reached the 20-homer mark for the fourth straight season, so his loss is a big one for a Rangers team looking more unlikely to make the postseason in 2025.

Texas Rangers shortstop Corey Seager went deep for the third straight game in the team's 6-4 loss to the Seattle Mariners on Sunday. Seager's two-run homer off right-hander Carlos Vargas tied the game at 3 with one out in the bottom of the 10th. The five-time All-Star drove in another run on a sacrifice fly in the 12th to conclude a 1-for-4, one-walk day. Despite his recent power surge, June has been a struggle for Seager. After spending most of May on the injured list with a strained hamstring, Seager has hit .185/.358/.358 in 23 games this month. Overall, he's slashing .244/.342/.430 with 10 HRs, 23 RBI, and 26 runs in 225 plate appearances. While those are above-average numbers, they're below Seager's standards. The good news for fantasy managers is that Seager ranks in the top 7% of the league in xSLG and xwOBA, making him a candidate for positive regression.

Texas Rangers shortstop Corey Seager will take a seat on Monday with a left-hander on the mound against the hosting Baltimore Orioles at Camden Yards. Ezequiel Duran will make the start at the 6 and will hit ninth against Orioles southpaw Trevor Rogers. Seager has not fared well against lefties this year, going 4-for-24 (.167) against them with just one of his eight home runs and six strikeouts. The 31-year-old two-time World Series MVP has also slumped in June, batting .143/.313/.222 with a homer, two doubles, four RBI, five runs scored and 18 strikeouts in 18 games played. Duran offers very little fantasy appeal for DFS managers on Monday. The 26-year-old Dominican has gone just 8-for-53 (.151) on the season with no home runs and two RBI. He's unlikely to make an impact at the bottom of Texas' batting order.
