News
	Josh Smith is being traded to the Toronto Blue Jays. Diego Sandoval Mon, Aug 3rd	Justin Foscue went 2-for-2 in a win over the Angels with a home run, two runs scored, and two RBI. Chris Schommer Wed, Jul 8th
	The Rangers have optioned utility man Josh Smith to Triple-A Round Rock. Brenton Kemp Fri, Jul 31st	Justin Foscue went 2-for-4 in a win over the Blue Jays with a home run, one run scored, and three RBI. Chris Schommer Sat, Jun 27th
	Josh Smith went 1-for-4 in Monday's win over the Mariners with one stolen base. Chris Schommer Mon, Jul 27th	Justin Foscue went 1-for-1 with a home run and a walk in two plate appearances off the bench against the Twins on Thursday. The homer continued a productive stretch for the infielder, who is batting .274/.333/.493 through 81 plate appearances this season. Bruno Mulé Fri, Jun 19th
	Josh Smith was recalled from Triple-A to the big-league squad by the Texas Rangers on Saturday. Diego Sandoval Sat, Jul 25th	With Corey Seager back from the injured list, Ezequiel Duran is expected to take over as the primary starter at second base, further limiting Foscue's opportunities. He had already lost his semi-regular role at the position when Texas added Nicky Lopez, and Sunday marked just his second start in the last eight games — both coming against left-handed pitching. Bruno Mulé Mon, Jun 8th
	The Rangers optioned Josh Smith to Triple-A Round Rock. Ari Koslow Thu, Jul 9th	Justin Foscue went 3-for-3 in a loss to the Rockies with a home run, two doubles, one run scored, three RBI, and one walk. Chris Schommer Tue, May 19th
