Josh Hamilton - Texas, Rangers (Image: Newscom)

As a result of what the MRI indicated, Texas has played Hamilton on the disabled list. The quickest doctors say that the outfielder could return to the lineup would be in two weeks, however the Rangers are unlikely to bring him back that fast. That is especially true since this is already Hamilton’s second stint on the DL this year.

To replace him on the roster, the Rangers called up Brandon Boggs. The 26-year-old Boggs hasn’t played in the major leagues so far this season.

Although Hamilton isn’t on the same pace that he was last season, he’s still a very important part to the Rangers. He’s currently hitting .240 with six homers and 24 RBIs. At 30-21, the Rangers have the second best record in the American League.
