Calhoun went 1-for-3 with a two-run single in Friday's 6-2 loss to the Angels.

EDGE Analysis

Calhoun returned to the lineup Friday after taking a seat against a left-hander Thursday and registered his first hit since returning from a hamstring injury. This was supposed to be a full season for the outfielder, but Calhoun has been through a fractured jaw, a strained oblique and a hamstring injury in 2020. Those injuries and the pandemic have limited him to just 21 games and 74 plate appearances. As such, the Rangers plan to send him to the instructional league during the offseason, T.R. Sullivan of MLB.com reports. "Willie has to keep working," manager Chris Woodward said. "He has to keep working to prove that he is an adequate defensive player. I don't know what our roster is going to be like next year. Obviously he is one of our best hitters. As far as playing the outfield, he has to earn it. He has to earn a spot." With Shin-Soo Choo (wrist) becoming a free agent, designated hitter could be Calhoun's landing spot in 2021.

EDGE Analysis

Texas manager Chris Woodward said Calhoun is not yet ready to play the outfield, so he'll return as the DH. Shin-Soo Choo had been the primary DH, but he's currently sidelined by a hand injury, giving Calhoun a clear path to at-bats. The outfield will be manned by Eli White or Nick Solak in left field, Leody Taveras in center and Joey Gallo in right. Because Choo becomes a free agent this offseason, designated hitter could be Calhoun's primary role in 2021.

Calhoun has been sidelined since Aug. 20 due to a strained left hamstring, but his return appears to be imminent. Woodward said that he hopes to get him as many at-bats as possible over the remainder of the season, so he's unlikely to face any restrictions once he returns to the active roster.

EDGE Analysis

Calhoun is expected to undergo an MRI on Thursday, but manager Chris Woodward is not optimistic. "It doesn't look great, to be honest with you," Woodward said. "It looks like a pretty good pull. I don't know the severity of it. I'm guessing it will probably be [injured list]." Scott Heineman pinch ran for Calhoun, who hobbled off the field after beating out an infield hit in the 10th inning. Nick Solak could fill in for Calhoun in left field, although the Rangers could use Shin-Soo Choo there, a move that would allow Danny Santana to receive regular at-bats as the designated hitter.
