Texas Rangers outfielder Wyatt Langford is going on the injured list with a Grade 1 flexor strain after exiting his last game because of right forearm tightness.

Manager Skip Schumaker said before Wednesday’s game against Pittsburgh that Langford was being placed on the 10-day injured list.

The Rangers don't expect him to miss any more time than that.

Outfielder Alejandro Osuna is being recalled from Triple-A Round Rock.

Langford had an MRI on Wednesday.

He's hitting .235 through 20 games and before coming out of Tuesday's game had a five-game hitting streak during which he had 10 hits in 23 at-bats.
