ARLINGTON, Texas \u2014 Texas Rangers manager Skip Schumaker would like to stay away from third baseman Josh Jung on Monday night. Aside from that, Jung is recovering nicely from a sore left shoulder.<\/p>\n

Jung had an MRI on the left shoulder on Monday and Schumaker said the results were clean. That was a follow-up to testing the shoulder in Anaheim after he left Saturday\u2019s game with left shoulder soreness after diving for a ground ball.<\/p>\n

He missed Sunday\u2019s game. He won\u2019t be in Monday\u2019s lineup against the Houston Astros. But Schumaker didn\u2019t totally rule Jung out from pinch-hitting.<\/p>\n

\u201cI don\u2019t think he\u2019s 100% down,\u201d Schumaker said about Monday\u2019s game against the Houston Astros.<\/p>\n

Josh Jung\u2019s Recovery<\/strong><\/h2>\n

Jung worked out before the clubhouse was opened to media on Monday. He hit off a tee and then he fielded ground balls and said afterward he felt good. He also said the shoulder felt much better than it did when he woke up on Sunday.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt was just really sore [on Sunday],\u201d Jung said. \u201cIt felt much better today.\u201d<\/p>\n

Ezequiel Duran will start at third base for the second straight game. Michael Helman will start at shortstop for Duran, who had been starting for Corey Seager at shortstop after the slugger moved to the injured list. Justin Foscue will play at second base, where Duran was starting for the injured Josh Smith before he had to move to shortstop.<\/p>\n

Jung confirmed that is the same shoulder in which he suffered a torn labrum in 2022, which required surgery. He also said that it was the first he\u2019d felt pain in the shoulder since he had the surgery and that Saturday\u2019s incident freaked him out more than anything.<\/p>\n

With three starters and position players on the injured list, now is not the time to lose the team\u2019s best offensive player this season. Jung is slashing .302\/.357\/.462 with five home runs and 21 RBI in 48 games. He is the Rangers top candidate to be selected to the All-Star game in July, which will be held in Philadelphia.<\/p>\n

Schumaker offered no commitment on whether Jung would play or start on Tuesday, noting that with any injury a player\u2019s recovery after a workout is a key component of the process. He did say the clean scan should give Jung some peace of mind that there is nothing more serious happening.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt\u2019s still sore,\u201d Schumaker said. \u201cLuckily there\u2019s nothing significant there. So we\u2019ll talk through his work today, see how he recovers and then go from there.\u201d<\/p>\n
