Rangers place Marcus Semien on the IL for just the 2nd time in his 13-year career

The Texas Rangers have placed second baseman Marcus Semien on the 10-day injured list for just the second time in his 13-year career with a left foot contusion and activated right...

Placed on injured list Texas placed Semien (foot) on the 15-day injured list Saturday, retroactive to Aug. 22.

Impact Semien has been out of the lineup since Thursday, when he fouled a ball off his left foot during a game against the Royals. Though the veteran infielder is slated to meet with a foot doctor Sunday, the Rangers decided not to wait until the results of that meeting to place him on the IL. The transaction made room on the 26-man roster for the Rangers to activate Adolis Garcia (ankle) off the IL. Semien's starting role at second base could be assumed by a combination of Ezequiel Duran, Josh Smith and/or Cody Freeman, the latter of which is starting at the position Saturday versus Cleveland.

Meeting with specialist Sunday Semien (foot) is slated to meet with a foot doctor Sunday and will not play Saturday, Matthew Postins of SI.com reports.

Impact Semien hasn't played since being removed from Thursday's contest against Kansas City a few innings after fouling a ball off his foot. The veteran infielder has so far had an X-Ray, CAT scan and MRI, with results of the latter coming back inconclusive. Semien's meeting with the foot doctor should provide more clarity about the specifics of his injury and a return timeline. It's unlikely that he'll play in any capacity this weekend.

Imaging inconclusive Semien (foot) underwent an MRI on Friday that came back inconclusive, MLB.com reports.

Impact Semien fouled a ball off his foot during the series finale against the Royals on Thursday and was held out of Friday's lineup. He remained in a walking boot and could miss the entire weekend set against the Guardians. Ezequiel Duran started at second base in Semien's place.

Rangers put Evan Carter on IL with broken wrist, still unsure of Marcus Semien's status

Texas Rangers center fielder Evan Carter has been put on the 10-day injured list with what likely will be a season-ending right wrist fracture

AUGUST 22 • Associated Press

Absent from Friday's lineup Semien (foot) is not in the Rangers' starting lineup against the Guardians on Friday.

Impact Semien fouled a ball off his left foot during Thursday's game against the Royals and was diagnosed with a foot contusion. Per Jeff Wilson of AllDLLS.com, Semien is in jeopardy of missing the entire weekend series, so his absence from Friday's lineup card isn't surprising. Ezequiel Duran will draw the start at the keystone and bat eighth.

AUGUST 22 • ROTOWIRE

Could be held out all weekend Semien (foot) could miss the entire weekend series against the Guardians and a trip to the 10-day injured list is possible, Jeff Wilson of AllDLLS.com reports.

Impact Semien had to be lifted from Thursday's game versus the Royals due to a left foot contusion after fouling a ball off the area. He has not been diagnosed with any fractures, but evidently the discomfort could keep him out a handful of days or longer. Ezequiel Duran, Cody Freeman and Josh Smith and Michael Helman are options to play second base for the Rangers while Semien is out.

Rejoining lineup Sunday Semien (wrist) will start at second base and bat sixth in Sunday's game against the Blue Jays.

Impact After being hit in the right wrist by a pitch in Friday's 6-5 loss, Semien was able to finish out the contest but was withheld from the lineup for Saturday's 14-2 loss while he contended with swelling and soreness in the wrist. The day off appears to have provided sufficient time for Semien to heal up from the injury, as he'll take back his usual spot at the keystone in the series finale while Ezequiel Duran retreats to the bench.
