Jung will have surgery to stabilize his fractured left thumb and is expected to miss six weeks, Evan Grant of The Dallas Morning News reports.

EDGE Analysis

The third baseman will likely go under the knife within the next few days in an effort to get him back on the field as soon as possible. Skipper Bruce Bochy stated the expectation is that Jung will play again this season, per Sonja Chen of MLB.com, though a more concrete timeline for his return should surface after the procedure takes place. Ezequiel Duran, Josh Smith and Jonathan Ornelas could all see opportunities at the hot corner during Jung's absence.

Jung was placed on the 10-day injured list Monday with a left thumb fracture.

EDGE Analysis

Jung was destined for the injured list when manager Bruce Bochy announced Sunday that the third baseman broke his thumb, and the Rangers made the move official one day later. A timeline for Jung's recovery remains undefined, but he will presumably miss several weeks. Several players could man the hot corner until Jung is ready to return, and Ezequiel Duran will get the first chance to do so Monday night.

Rangers manager Bruce Bochy said Jung was diagnosed with a fractured left thumb Sunday, Jeff Wilson of RangersToday.com reports.

EDGE Analysis

The 25-year-old suffered the injury during the sixth inning of Sunday's win over the Marlins while attempting to field a line drive. Jung doesn't have an official timeline for his return, but he's likely looking at a multi-week absence, at least. Ezequiel Duran and Josh Smith are the probable replacements at third base for Texas.

Jung was removed from Sunday's game against the Marlins with an left thumb contusion, Kennedi Landry of MLB.comreports. He went 0-for-2 with a strikeout prior to his departure.

Jung appeared to suffer an injury while fielding a line drive during the sixth inning and was replaced in the field for the following frame. The 25-year-old should be considered day-to-day heading into Monday's series opener at Oakland.

Jung went 2-for-3 with a walk, a two-run home run and an additional run scored in Saturday's 9-8 come-from-behind win over Miami.

EDGE Analysis

Jung hit the second of two two-run blasts in the fifth inning -- a 104.5-mph liner just inside the foul pole in left field -- to give Texas a lead it would not relinquish after falling behind 5-0. It was the 22nd home run for the rookie third baseman, who has multiple hits in three of the last four games.

Jung went 2-for-4 with a two-run home run, an additional RBI and a double in Wednesday's 11-1 victory versus the White Sox.

EDGE Analysis

Jung was one of four Rangers with multiple RBI in the rout, with two of the runs he plated coming on a 409-foot shot to center field in the fifth inning. The third baseman is tied with Francisco Alvarez and Corbin Carroll for the MLB rookie lead with 21 homers on the season, and he tops all first-year players with 64 RBI. Jung has complemented those numbers with a .272/.322/.487 slash line, 66 runs and rookie-leading 24 doubles to make his case among a strong field for AL Rookie of the Year honors.

Jung went 3-for-4 with two doubles and a run scored in Friday's 7-1 loss to San Diego.

EDGE Analysis

Jung was the lone highlight for the Rangers, whose bats couldn't do much against starter Joe Musgrove. Jung, who led off the ninth inning with a single, crossed the plate for Texas' lone run after a bases-loaded walk. The rookie third baseman has hit safely in five of the last six games with a home run and three doubles.

Jung went 2-for-5 with a two-run home run and an additional run scored in a 10-9 loss to the Astros on Monday.

EDGE Analysis

Jung helped Texas get off to a fast start, swatting a two-run shot to left field in the first inning. It was his 20th long ball of the campaign, most among AL rookies and second among all first-year players behind only Corbin Carroll. Jung's standout campaign also includes a .275/.326/.490 slash line, 61 RBI and 64 runs, though he also leads the majors with 122 strikeouts.

EDGE Analysis

Jung, who was 1-for-his-last-12 in the series, delivered the go-ahead runs with a two-run single in the bottom of the eighth inning. His was the third consecutive run-producing hit during Texas' four-run eighth. The All Star third baseman is up to 58 RBI for the season, which leads all rookies.

Jung went 2-for-4 with two home runs and three RBI in Saturday's 8-3 loss to Washington.

EDGE Analysis

Jung went yard in the fourth and sixth innings, but it was not nearly enough to overcome the 8-0 deficit created by starter Andrew Heaney, who left the game after three innings. The long balls were the 18th and 19th for Jung, who leads all MLB rookies in that category. He's hit safely in five of his last six contests, logging multiple hits in four of them and going 9-for-26 (.346) with five extra-base hits and six runs scored.
