Undergoes another wrist surgery Jung underwent tendon release surgery on his right wrist Tuesday, Jeff Wilson of AllDLLS.com reports.

Impact Jung missed most of the first four months of the season after having surgery to repair a fracture in the same wrist, and he went back on the injured list in late September with recurring discomfort. The hope is that, following this most recent wrist surgery, he will be able to have a normal offseason after 3-to-4 weeks of rehab. Jung had a .719 OPS with seven homers over 46 games with the Rangers this season.
