Texas Rangers first baseman Danny Santana built upon an encouraging Thursday performance to hit his first home run of the season on Friday. In a 7-4 loss to the Seattle Mariners, Santana took a 1-1 pitch off Mariners starter Nick Margevicius and sailed it 390 feet to the opposite field to cut Seattle's lead. Texas' utility man returned to the lineup last Sunday and now has six RBI in the six games since he came back. Santana popped 28 home runs and swiped 25 bags in 2019, and it seemed ...

Texas Rangers utility man Danny Santana came into last night's game with a .242 on-base percentage and .172 slugging percentage but helped those ratios out with a productive night at the plate. Santana went 1-for-4 with a double, a walk, three runs batted in, and a stolen base, but did strike out three times. However, it's encouraging for his fantasy managers that Santana showed he can still swing the bat with power and steal some bases after a disappointing start to 2020. The versatile player ...

Texas Rangers outfielder Danny Santana was placed back on the active roster ahead of Sundays contest against the Rockies after having been sidelined since July 28 due to a strained right forearm. Santana was not among the starting nine, although he presumably should be ready to return to the mix Monday against the Padres and right-hander Zach Davies. Off to a 1-for-17 start at the dish, Santanas sample size remains small enough for owners to hit the proverbial reset button. After a breakout ...

Texas Rangers utility Danny Santana (forearm) has been placed on the 10-day injured list with a forearm strain. Santana has been out of the lineup the past few days, so it makes sense that it was something more serious than just rest. He has struggled to start the year, with just one hit through 17 at-bats, which makes you wonder how long he's been dealing with this. It's possible he'll need more than just the 10 days to recover. Texas called up infielder Anderson Tejeda from the alternate ...

Texas Rangers outfielder/infielder Danny Santana was 0-for-3 with three strikeouts in the intrasquad game on Thursday against starting pitcher Corey Kluber, and he's now 0-for-13 with 10 strikeouts in summer camp action. "I think hes just getting his timing back," manager Chris Woodward said. "Im not overly concerned." Fantasy owners shouldn't expect the same kind of numbers that Santana produced in 2019 -- 28 home runs, 21 steals, .283 batting average and over 80 RBI -- but he'll be a regular...

The Texas Rangers finished the 2019 season with a record 0f 78-84, which was good for a third-place finish in the American League West.

The Rangers have plenty of youth and have brought in the likes of Corey Kluber, Kyle Gibson, and Jordan Lyles to help bolster their starting rotation.One major bright spot for the 2019 Texas Rangers was Danny Santana.

Texas Rangers manager Chris Woodward told reporters on Wednesday that outfielder Danny Santana is likely to get most of the playing time in center field to start the 2020 season. The team said earlier this year that they were hoping to get prospect Nick Solak comfortable at the position to maximize Santana's utility around the diamond. That has been the case so far in spring training, as Solak has appeared in six games as a center fielder. Still, the Rangers are in an excellent position, and it ...

Texas Rangers outfielder Danny Santana (calf) was removed from the first game of spring training on Friday for precautionary reasons. The utility man led off against the Kansas City Royals and grounded out on the first pitch he saw. Santana was a big surprise in 2019 as he produced all over the diamond for Texas with 28 home runs and 21 steals. One of the top prospects in the Rangers organization, infielder Nick Solak, should see more at bats in spring training if Santana misses anytime with ...

Texas Rangers outfielder Danny Santana had a breakout season in 2019. He hit .283/.324/.534 over 511 plate appearances in 130 games. He had 81 runs, 28 homers, 81 RBI, and was 21-for-28 on stolen base attempts. Santana can play all over the diamond, and his versatility will make him a desirable player on draft day. His wOBA was only .014 points above his xwOBA and ranked him outside the top 50 in over performers last season. What prospective owners of Danny Santana should look out for is how ...
