Lands on IL with ankle issue The Rangers placed Dunning on the 10-day injured list Wednesday with an ankle impingement, Chris Halicke of SI.com reports.
Impact Manager Chris Woodward indicating the injury had been bothering Dunning for "a few" starts, including his most recent one Monday against the Angels. In spite of the injury, Dunning limited the Halos to only one run over five innings en route to collecting his fifth win of the season. Woodward said that he isn't worried about Dunning, and the expectation is that the 26-year-old right-hander will only miss one turn through the rotation. Dunning is eligible to return from the IL on Aug. 13.

Wins second straight Dunning (5-7) allowed one run on three hits and two walks while striking out three over five innings to earn the win over the Angels on Monday.
Impact Dunning is in the midst of his best stretch of the season, having gone 3-1 with a 2.70 ERA over his last six outings, spanning 30 innings. He's made the jump from 34 innings pitched in 2020 to 95 innings this season with another two months to go. It's uncertain how much the Rangers will push him, given that they've managed his workload all season. Dunning is next projected to pitch Saturday at Oakland.

Strikes out three in win Dunning (4-7) allowed two earned runs on six hits and two walks with three strikeouts over 6.1 innings, picking up the win in Tuesday's 5-4 victory over the Diamondbacks.
Impact While the stats might not jump off the page, Dunning was solid in picking up the quality start Tuesday night. His adventure into the seventh inning marked the deepest he's gone into a game this season, but this isn't a philosophy change from Chris Woodward and crew. A pitch count of 75-80 remains a stark reality for the former Florida Gator, as the Rangers still want to be careful with Dunning. The only reason the right-hander made it into the seventh was his incredible efficiency. He finished the night having thrown just 78 pitches. If Dunning is ever unleashed, he could become more of a fantasy factor.

No longer starting Sunday Dunning will not pitch Sunday against Houston as originally projected, Kennedi Landry of MLB.com reports.
Impact Dunning would have made the start on regular rest, but the Rangers are opting to put Taylor Hearn on the mound instead. The team has been careful with Dunning's workload during his starts, as he has completed more than five innings only twice. Even so, Dunning has already thrown 83.2 innings on the campaign, and he has not topped 100 frames in a season since 2017.

Impact In his final start before the All-Star break, Dunning mowed down the Tigers, allowing just one run while striking out six in a 10-5 Texas victory. It was a different story Tuesday night. Dunning gave up home runs to Robbie Grossman and Eric Haase and could only manage two strikeouts, his lowest total since April 23.
