Placed on 10-day injured list
The Rangers placed Jung on the 10-day injured list Saturday, retroactive to Wednesday, due to a left calf strain.
Analisi
Jung has been dealing with a left calf injury that he picked up against the White Sox on Tuesday. There was hope that he would be cleared to return to the lineup this weekend, but the injury is severe enough for Jung to warrant a stint on the injured list. The Rangers should have a better sense of Jung's recovery timeline once he undergoes further tests, but the team is hopeful that he'll be ready to return next weekend against the Astros, per Jeff Wilson of AllDLLS.com. Josh Smith was recalled from Triple-A Round Rock in a corresponding move.

Could go on IL
Rangers manager Skip Schumaker said that Jung (calf) was unable to run at full speed prior to Friday's game against Seattle, Jeff Wilson of AllDLLS.com reports.
Analisi
Schumaker said the Jung was running at "half-speed" as a result of a left calf injury that Jung picked up Tuesday against the White Sox. The injury is severe enough that the veteran third baseman may need a stint on the IL, and Wilson suggests that a decision from the Rangers could come as soon as Saturday. Ezequiel Duran is starting at third base Friday and could continue to see more reps at the hot corner for as long as Jung is sidelined.

Remains out of lineup
Jung (calf) remains out of the lineup for Friday's game against the Mariners.
Analisi
Jung was removed from Tuesday's game versus the White Sox with left calf tightness. He sat out Wednesday and the Rangers had an off day Thursday, but Jung still isn't ready to rejoin the lineup. Ezequiel Duran will again fill in at third base.

Sitting as precaution Wednesday
Jung (calf) is out of the lineup for Wednesday's game against the White Sox.
Analisi
Ezequiel Duran will draw the start at third base in place of Jung, who was lifted early in Tuesday's 10-0 win due to left calf tightness. Per Kennedi Landry of MLB.com, Jung downplayed any concern about the injury, noting that he feels fine and expects to be available off the bench Wednesday. The Rangers will have a team day off Thursday, so with two full days of rest on tap, Jung could be ready for the three-game series versus the Mariners this weekend.

Precautionary exit Tuesday
Jung said after being removed from Tuesday's game versus the White Sox with left calf tightness that he expects to be OK, Evan Grant of The Dallas Morning News reports.
Analisi
While the injury looks to be minor, the Rangers weren't going to be taking any chances given Jung's history of calf issues. With the Rangers being idle Thursday, there's a chance Jung will be held out of Wednesday's lineup. The club might have more information on their third baseman's condition pregame.

Exits early Tuesday
Jung was removed from Tuesday's game against the White Sox with left calf tightness, Kennedi Landry of MLB.com reports.
Analisi
The severity of Jung's injury remains unknown, but the Rangers will likely provide an update once they take a closer look at him. If Jung ends up needing to miss additional starts, Nicky Lopez would likely receive the largest increase in playing time.
