The Texas Rangers got a bit of good news on Monday. First baseman Mitch Moreland could return in three to four weeks.
Originally Moreland was thought to be lost for the season as he was set to undergo ankle surgery, now there is hope he will be able to play again this year.
Mitch Moreland to forgo ankle reconstruction. Hopes to be back in 3-4 weeks. MRI on Rougned Odor clean. Will take BP today. #Rangers
