Justin Foscue's Stats, Metrics, Game Logs, Projections & Rankings

Texas Rangers infield prospect Justin Foscue (oblique) went 1-for-2 with two walks for Triple-A Round Rock on Thursday. The 25-year-old saw his rehab assignment moved to Triple-A as he continues to progress in his return from an oblique strain. Foscue had just gotten the call-up to the Rangers when he suffered his injury in early April. The No. 2 prospect for Texas is a pure hitter with good plate discipline. As he continues his rehab assignment it will be interesting to see if a spot opens for him at the major league level. First, he will have to show he is back to full health, but any potential return to the big leagues could be in a utility role.

Texas Rangers infield prospect Justin Foscue (oblique) is headed to the 10-day injured list with a left oblique strain. It is a shame as Foscue got his first big-league hit off Josh Hader on Sunday. Foscue was promoted last week when third baseman Josh Jung (wrist) landed on the 10-day injured list. Jung has now been transferred to the 60-day injured and infielder Davis Wendzel will take the roster spot of Foscue. With Foscue not getting much playing time, one stands to believe that Wendzel will be nothing more than a bench bat and can safely remain on the waiver wire.

Texas Rangers third baseman Justin Foscue remains out of the starting lineup ahead of Friday's game against the Houston Astros. The team recalled Foscue after Josh Jung (wrist) landed on the injured list on Tuesday. Since then, Foscue has been on the bench for the first three games. It seems odd that the Rangers would call up the 25-year-old prospect and then not use him. Instead, Josh Smith will cover third base and bat eighth versus right-hander Hunter Brown. Foscue is an interesting talent, but isn't worth snagging in fantasy formats while sitting on the bench.

The Texas Rangers are calling up top prospect Justin Foscue from the minors on Tuesday, according to sources. The 25-year-old was a first-round pick (14th overall) in 2020 out of Mississippi State and can play first, second and third base. He'll fill the roster spot of third baseman Josh Jung, who suffered a broken right wrist when he was hit by a pitch on Monday. With first baseman Nathaniel Lowe (oblique) also on the injured list, Foscue should see a good amount of playing time between the two corner-infield spots, making him an immediate waiver-wire pickup in at least AL-only fantasy leagues. He hit .266/.394/.468 with 18 homers and 14 steals in 122 games with Triple-A Round Rock in 2023 and is listed as Texas' No. 5 prospect, per MLB Pipeline.

Texas Rangers infield prospect Justin Foscue went 2-for-3 with a double and two RBI in Tuesday's Cactus League contest versus the Oakland Athletics. Foscue, 25, is now hitting .275 with one homer, four doubles and five RBI in 40 at-bats. Foscue was brought up as a second baseman, but has played both corner infield positions this spring and that can help increase his chances of breaking camp with the World Series champs. In Triple-A Round Rock this past season, Foscue hit .266 with 18 home runs, 31 doubles, four triples, 84 RBI, 14 stolen bases and 94 runs scored in 122 games. The former first-round pick does not possess much power which limits his game, but has a knack for making contact and getting on base. Without much power or opportunity at the moment, Foscue can remain on the waiver wire in all formats.
