Texas Rangers' Nathan Eovaldi Placed on 15-Day IL Due to Groin Injury

The injury adds to a growing list of sidelined starters for the Rangers, complicating their season.

Nathan Eovaldi, a key pitcher for the Texas Rangers, exited a game early due to groin tightness and has been placed on the 15-day injured list.
Eovaldi's injury occurred during a stretch where the Rangers are already dealing with multiple injuries in their rotation, including Jacob deGrom and Max Scherzer.
The Rangers are facing a challenging schedule, with 10 games in nine days, necessitating quick adjustments to their pitching lineup.
Potential replacements for Eovaldi include José Ureña and minor leaguers, as the team scrambles to fill gaps in their rotation.
Eovaldi's absence is particularly impactful given his strong performance this season, posting a 2.61 ERA before the injury.
