Lands on IL The Rangers placed Dahl on the 10-day injured list Wednesday with a left rib cage contusion.
Impact Texas manager Chris Woodward speculated earlier Wednesday that Dahl may have suffered a fractured or cracked rib cage a night earlier, but the Rangers are merely labeling his injury as a bruise for now. While that bodes well for Dahl's chances of avoiding an extended absence, he'll still be out of the mix for the next week and a half after shifting to the IL. The Rangers recalled outfielder Jason Martin from Triple-A Round Rock in a corresponding move, but Khris Davis could be first in line to replace Dahl in the everyday lineup at designated hitter, while Willie Calhoun mans left field on a more regular basis.

May have fractured rib Manager Chris Woodward admitted that the Rangers have some concern that Dahl suffered a fractured or cracked rib in Tuesday's 11-5 loss to the Angels, Sam Blum of The Dallas Mornin...
Impact The Rangers are holding Dahl out of the lineup for Wednesday's series finale and are labeling his injury as rib-cage soreness for the time being, but the outfielder could be sent in for additional follow-up tests to glean more information on the matter. Dahl has dealt with a variety of injuries since reaching the big leagues in 2016, and a fractured rib would almost certainly put the 27-year-old in line for another extended absence. Khris Davis is serving as the Rangers' designated hitter Wednesday, and he would likely be the main beneficiary of added playing time if Dahl is forced to go on the injured list.
