Hits injured list as expected Calhoun (groin) was placed on the 10-day injured list as expected Thursday.

Impact Calhoun has been dealing with a groin strain since early March. He's advanced to sim-game action, so he shouldn't miss too much more time, but he'll be out for at least the first week of the season.

Expected to miss first two weeks Calhoun is expected to spend the first two weeks of the regular season on the injured list with a low-grade groin strain, Roch Kubatko of MASNSports.com reports.

Impact Calhoun had just one hit in 11 at-bats this spring before being shut down with a groin issue. He'll be in the mix for starts at designated hitter and left field once he's back in action, though he may not be ahead of David Dahl or Khris Davis at either spot.

Could open season on IL Calhoun (grion) could begin the 2021 season on the injured list, Evan Grant of The Dallas Morning News reports.

Impact The 26-year-old apparently hasn't suffered a setback with the groin injury, but the Rangers are being cautious with his return. Calhoun is poised for an everyday role between left field and designated hitter this season, but David Dahl and Khris Davis could handle the bulk of those opportunities at each respective position to open 2021.

Battling tight groin The Rangers announced Tuesday that Calhoun is dealing with groin tightness, Jeff Wilson of the Fort Worth Star-Telegram reports.

Impact The team hasn't indicated that the injury is especially serious, but Calhoun will likely be withheld from the Cactus League lineup for at least a couple days while he recovers from the issue. The 26-year-old is expected to serve as an everyday player for Texas in left field or at designated hitter this season.

Feeling comfortable Calhoun no longer feels the anxiety that he initially experienced when first returning from a broken jaw, Evan Grant of the Dallas Morning News reports.

Impact That anxious feeling was something Calhoun dealt with against left-handers. "I feel completely normal again," he said. "Last year I would bail out on off-speed pitches. I would be really jumpy. I wouldn't really stay in there." In four plate appearances against left-handers this spring, Calhoun has a single and two walks. The 26-year-old seeks to improve on a .190/.231/.260 slash line over 108 plate appearances in 2020.
