Rangers place 1B Jake Burger (quadriceps) on 10-day IL
The move is retroactive to Sunday.
Burger sustained the injury while running out a grounder during the top of the fifth inning of Friday's 7-3 win over the Houston Astros. He left the game before the bottom of the sixth.
Burger, 29, was utilized as a pinch-hitter on Saturday and then scratched from Sunday's lineup after initially being listed as the designated hitter.
Burger is batting .228 with 11 homers and 35 RBIs in 75 games this season.
The Rangers didn't immediately make a corresponding move since their next game isn't until Friday due to the All-Star break. Texas will host the major league-leading Detroit Tigers in the opener of a three-game set.

US denies entry to Venezuelan Little League players, sporting body says
WASHINGTON, July 26 (Reuters) - The United States has refused entry to a Venezuelan Little League team that had been due to compete in this year's senior league World Series baseball tournament in South Carolina, according to a statement from Little League International. Cacique Mara Little League was unable to obtain the necessary entry visas, a development that was "extremely disappointing, especially to these young athletes," the organization said in a statement. A Mexican team that finished second in a regional tournament will compete in its place so that the tournament may go forward, it added. The White House and State Department did not immediately respond to requests for comment on Saturday. U.S. President Donald Trump last month issued a proclamation barring entry to people from 12 countries and restricting entry by nationals of seven others, including Venezuela. In the Latin America region, Cacique Mara had finished with a record of 5-0, according to Little League. The 2025 Senior League Baseball World Series will be held from July 26 to August 2 in Easley, South Carolina.
