MITCH GARVER NEWS

Plays full game Garver (knee) served as the designated hitter and went 0-for-4 with a walk for Triple-A Round Rock on Tuesday.

Impact This was the first time Garver played a full game, albeit as a DH. Texas manager Bruce Bochy said Garver would play another two or three games while on rehab this week, per Matthew Postins of SI.com, citing a report in the Dallas Morning News. The club would like to see him play a nine-inning game, presumably in the field, before activating him. Garver's activation is lining up for when the Rangers return from a road trip to open a weekend series against Seattle on Friday.

He's projected to return to MLB in late May.

Nearing rehab assignment Manager Bruce Bochy said Sunday that Garver (knee) is expected to begin a rehab assignment around May 23, Sonja Chen of MLB.com reports.

Impact Garver's target date to return from the 10-day injured list was previously mentioned as May 23, but his activation date is now likely to be at least a few days beyond that. The 32-year-old played in just six games before he landed on the shelf with a knee sprain in early April, so he could require a handful of games in the minors before being cleared to rejoin the Rangers.

MAY 14, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Target date still May 23 The target date for Garver (knee) to return off the 10-day injured list remains May 23, Kennedi Landry of MLB.com reports.

Impact Garver was able to take batting practice Friday and continues to make positive progress from the knee sprain that has kept him on the injured list since the middle of April. Because of how much time the veteran 31-year-old has missed, Garver will likely need a rehab assignment of at least a handful of games, and he'll likely begin that assignment at some point in the next week.

Rangers Update Corey Seager, Mitch Garver Injuries Texas Rangers manager Bruce Bochy has a rough timeline for the returns of Corey Seager and Mitch Garver.

APRIL 28, 2023 • NEWSOBSERVER.COM

Timeline extended Texas general manager Chris Young said Friday that Garver (knee) will be out at least another month, Evan Grant of the Dallas Morning News reports.

Impact There has been mixed and unclear messaging since Garver landed on the injured list after tweaking his left knee during a game April 8. At that time, it was believed to be a minor injury, but then an MRI exam revealed a more significant sprain. Earlier this week, manager Bruce Bochy said Garver would need about four weeks to recover. The Rangers' official site provided an update Friday, attributed to Bochy, that Garver will be out for five to six weeks. And it's unclear if that's five to six weeks from the time of the injury or from the most recent update. It's looking like mid-May return at the earliest for Garver. In the meantime, Jonah Heim and Sandy Leon will hold down catching duties.
