Rangers' Adolis Garcia to Undergo MRI for Oblique Discomfort

Rangers outfielder Adolis Garcia was scratched from today’s Cactus League game after experiencing discomfort in his left oblique. According to Evan Grant of the Dallas Morning News, Garcia is scheduled for an MRI to determine the extent of the injury. Manager Bruce Bochy mentioned that Garcia will "miss a little bit of time," but the team hopes his absence won’t be prolonged. Additionally, fellow outfielder Wyatt Langford, who suffered an oblique injury 11 days ago, has yet to appear in a spring game. The Rangers have not ruled out Opening Day for either player, pending further updates on their conditions.

Garcia, who turned 32 over the weekend, is entering the 2025 season with hopes of rebounding at the plate. He was a key player in the Rangers' 2023 World Series run, recording a .245/.328/.508 slash line with 39 home runs. As the Rangers await further news on Garcia's injury, they are undoubtedly hoping for a quick recovery to ensure his impactful presence in the lineup. Garcia's return will be crucial for the team as they aim to start the season strong.
