Jake Burger Lands on Injured List Again with Left Quad Strain

Texas Rangers first baseman Jake Burger has been placed on the 10-day injured list for a left quad strain, marking his second stint on the IL this season. The move, made Wednesday and retroactive to Sunday, follows a pinch-hitting appearance where he exited a game due to the strain. Burger, who previously missed 10 games from June 21 to July 2 with a left oblique strain, is currently hitting .228 with 11 home runs and 35 RBIs across 75 games in his debut season with the Rangers, after being acquired from Miami. Since returning from his first injury, he had shown improved performance, batting .250 with eight homers and 23 RBIs in 45 games.
