The Texas Rangers authored a 17-run blowout of the Los Angeles Angeles Wednesday. On Thursday, though, the Rangers suffered a blow to their power-charged lineup.
Five-time All-Star shortstop Corey Seager has appendicitis and is undergoing surgery, according to Rangers president of baseball operations Chris Young, who told reporters Thursday that Seager will be “out a period of time.”

Young isn’t ruling the 31-year-old out for the season, however.
After homering against the Angels on Tuesday and Wednesday, Seager is having an appendectomy Thursday. Rangers broadcaster Jared Sandler noted that Seager experienced increasing abdominal pain in recent days, ultimately leading to his scheduled procedure that will put him on the IL indefinitely.
Seager is slashing .271/.373/.487 with 21 home runs and 50 RBI this season.
A two-time World Series champion who previously played for the Los Angeles Dodgers from 2015-21, Seager has now had a bad break late in the season back-to-back years. Last September, he underwent surgery to repair a sports hernia on the right side of his groin. In January of that year, he had a procedure on the left side, addressing the sports hernia he played through during the Rangers’ World Series run in 2023.

The 2025 season is Seager’s first in Texas without an All-Star appearance. It could be his first without at least 30 home runs, too, now that he’s on the IL with the calendar about to flip to September.
The Rangers are currently third in the AL West with a 68-67 record. They’re 4 1/2 games back of an AL wild-card spot. But they’ve been bitten badly by the injury bug this month.
In addition to Seager, pitchers Nathan Eovaldi, Jon Gray and Cole Winn; outfielders Evan Carter and Sam Haggerty; and infielders Jake Burger and Marcus Semien have landed on the IL since Aug. 15.

Wisconsin starting QB Billy Edwards Jr. leaves Week 1 win over Miami (Ohio) with non-contact injury
