Texas Rangers outfielder Eli White has an oblique strain, according to manager Chris Woodward (via T.R. Sullivan on Twitter). Woodward indicated that White will miss a fair amount of time.
White has been one of the more positive stories from camp both this spring and this summer. The 26 year old was acquired from the Oakland A’s after the 2018 season in the three-way Jurickson Profar trade, but a down season for Nashville with the bat resulted in him being exposed to the Rule 5 draft this past offseason.
White went unselected in the Rule 5 draft, however, and has had an impressive camp, turning heads with his speed and with his defense in center field.
