Ahead of the Texas Rangers' May 13 matchup with the Colorado Rockies, the team made a decision on star shortstop Corey Seager.

The Texas Rangers were able to hold off the Colorado Rockies on Tuesday night for a 2-1 win in their first game of a three-game series, but it wasn’t all positive for the team. Shortstop Corey Seager missed another game because of nagging hamstring soreness.

Rangers manager Bruce Bochy said X-rays were negative, but that the right hand “swelled up pretty good.” He said a stint on the injured list was certainly a possibility.

It was a true Wild West duel in Arlington tonight, and the Rockies nearly won. But, as we know, “close only counts in horseshoes” and the Rockies, unfortunately, play baseball and not horseshoes and they fell 2-1 in Warren Schaeffer’s managerial debut.

Texas Rangers shortstop Corey Seager was put on the injured list again because of a hamstring strain her suffered on May 11.

Several current Rockies players, including two-time Gold Glove center fielder Brenton Doyle, Gold Glove shortstop Ezequiel Tovar, and reserve outfielder Sean Bouchard, played under Schaeffer at Triple-A Albuquerque. Schaeffer received glowing reviews.

Seager returned from a first stint on the IL on May 3 after the minimum 10 days and without a rehab assignment. Over the next 10 days, he played in just five of the Rangers’ nine games. He went 8 for 23 (.348) with two homers, but said he was feeling increasing soreness on every swing by the weekend.

Corey Seager has been placed on the 10-day injured list again by the Texas Rangers. The two-time World Series MVP shortstop had already missed four of their previous five games because of right hamstring soreness before the move Tuesday.
