Texas Rangers’ Corey Seager rounds the bases after hitting a solo home run during the fourth inning of a baseball game against the Chicago White Sox in Chicago, Thursday, Aug. 29, 2024. SEATTLE — Texas shortstop Corey Seager will undergo surgery to repair a sports hernia, ending the All-Star shortstop’s third season with the Rangers, general manager Chris Young said Thursday.
“Obviously a tough decision but with where we are at this point in the season, felt like it was a prudent decision in order for him to make a full recovery, have a strong offseason and be ready for spring training,” Young said ahead of the first of four games against the Mariners. Seager hit .278 with 30 home runs and 74 RBIs in 123 games. He reached 30 homers for the third season in a row since signing a 10-year, $325 million free agent contract with Texas.
