Drew Anderson - Rehab begins SaturdayAnderson (undisclosed) will begin a rehab assignment with Triple-A Round Rock on Saturday, Levi Weaver of The Athletic reports.

ImpactThe Rangers never announced the reason for Anderson's placement on the COVID-19 injured list, but the fact that he's been out for two weeks suggests he likely tested positive for the virus himself. He joined Round Rock for workouts Monday but won't officially begin a rehab assignment until Saturday.

Dane Dunning - Tosses live batting practiceDunning (undisclosed) threw 23 pitches in a live batting practice session Monday, Chris Halicke of SI.com reports.

ImpactThe Rangers haven't officially announced whether or not Dunning tested positive for coronavirus, but he's been on the COVID-19 injured list for nearly two weeks now, so it's likely that he did. Previous reports indicated that Dunning could be activated to start this weekend in Oakland, and his session Monday seems to put him on that path.

ImpactCalhoun has been out since undergoing forearm surgery in late June. He posted a .254/.323/.385 slash line with five homers in 59 games prior to the injury. Given the length of his absence, his rehab assignment probably won't be a short one.

Shohei Ohtani - Swipes another bagOhtani went 0-for-4 with a walk and a stolen base Sunday in a loss to the Rangers.

ImpactThe slugger didn't collect any hits in the game, but he still contributed to fantasy squads with an eighth-inning theft. Ohtani is up to 23 stolen bases on the campaign, tied for sixth in the majors. He also leads the league with 43 home runs, and he is the first player in franchise history to log a 40-20 season.
