Availability
Rangers manager Skip Schumaker said Justin Foscue will get most of the second base reps.
Fantasy Impact
The Rangers are moving around their infield with Corey Seager placed on the injured list. Foscue will see most of the reps at second base with Ezequiel Duran at shortstop.
Justin Foscue went 1-for-3 in a win over the Cubs with a solo home run.
Fantasy Impact
Foscue has heated up at the plate, driving in runs in each of his last two games. The 27-year-old will look to provide manager Skip Schumaker with another impactful option in a disappointing Rangers lineup since being called up, batting .286 with one home run and two RBI across four games.
Justin Foscue has been called up from Triple-A Round Rock.
Fantasy Impact
Veteran utility man Josh Smith (glute) was placed on the 10-day IL on Tuesday afternoon, leading to Foscue's callup. Foscue has played 30 games in the minors so far this year, batting .287 with two homers and 10 doubles. He should fill a bench role for the Rangers in the short term.
Justin Foscue has been diagnosed with a right hamstring strain and will be sidelined for approximately two weeks.
Fantasy Impact
Foscue left a February 23 spring training game against the Los Angeles Angels with a hamstring injury, and testing confirmed a strain. He is expected to begin the 2026 season in the minors but could be called up if he performs well, following a .256/.336/.464 slash line in 407 at-bats in the minors last season.
Rangers infielder Justin Foscue will see time in the outfield in spring training, according to manager Skip Schumaker.
Fantasy Impact
Foscue has seen his limited big-time time at first and second base, but will get a look in the outfield this spring as the club evaluates its utility options. The 26-year-old has it just .059 across his first 53 MLB trips to the plate.
