Rangers activated OF Michael Helman from the 60-day injured list.

Helman provides the Rangers with a versatile bench option for the final week of the regular season as they cling to a one-game lead over the Astros for the AL West division title. The 30-year-old has been out since mid-June after suffering multiple hand fractures when he was hit by a pitch.

Rangers transferred OF Michael Helman to the 60-day injured list.

Nothing has changed in the prognosis for Helman, who is shelved with multiple hand fractures, this was done as a procedural move to clear a spot on the Rangers’ 40-man roster for the addition of Jarred Kelenic on Friday.

Rangers’ outfielder Michael Helman suffered multiple fractures in his hand when he was hit by a pitch during Saturday’s contest against the Red Sox.

Helman was drilled by a 99-mph sinker from Tayron Guerrero in the eighth inning and was replaced when the Rangers took the field in the bottom of the frame. He’ll officially land on the injured list prior to Sunday’s game and is likely to miss a significant amount of time while recovering.

Evan Carter (foot) remained out of the Rangers’ starting lineup for Sunday’s tilt against the Royals.

Carter hasn’t played since exiting Friday’s game after being hit on the foot by a pitch from Eli Morgan. He was able to avoid any fractures, but it still dealing with a bit of soreness and swelling. He should return to the lineup in another day or two. Michael Helman will once again start in his place in center field and will bat ninth against Royals’ right-hander Michael Wacha.

Josh Jung left Saturday’s game against the Angels with left shoulder soreness.

Jung was replaced by Michael Helman, with Helman taking over at shortstop and Ezequiel Duran moving to third base. Jung will likely undergo imaging on the shoulder, and at the very least, it seems unlikely he’ll be in the lineup for Sunday’s finale against Los Angeles.

Rangers recalled INF/OF Michael Helman from Triple-A Round Rock.

Helman returns to the majors for the first time since last year when he got into a career-high 38 games for the Rangers, with Corey Seager hitting the injured list with back inflammation. The 29-year-old figures to occupy a bench role at the highest level.

Rangers optioned OFs Alejandro Osuna and Michael Helman and RHP Luis Curvelo to Triple-A Round Rock.

Osuna and Helman come up short on bids to break camp in the big leagues with the Rangers going with Ezequiel Duran and Andrew McCutchen in reserve roles. Osuna got into 63 games as a rookie last year and has the look of a reserve outfielder. Helman is a gritty jack-of-all-trades utility specialist with plenty of defensive versatility. He should get another look in the near future.
