• Rangers' Cody Freeman: Suffers back fracture

  Rotowire Feb 21, 2026

  Freeman was diagnosed with a lower-back fracture Saturday, Evan Grant of The Dallas Morning News reports. Freeman will remain sidelined for 4-to-6 weeks before the Rangers re-evaluate him, which will almost certainly cause him to miss the entire Cactus League schedule and could force him to begin the regular season on the injured list. The 25-year-old infielder had been in the running to land a spot on the Rangers' bench, but his injury will open the door for other players like Ezequiel Duran, Sam Haggerty and Justin Foscue to pick up reps during spring training games.

• Rangers' Cody Freeman: Could finish season at 2B

  Rotowire Sep 24, 2025

  Freeman started at second base and went 0-for-3 in Tuesday's 4-1 loss to Minnesota.

Freeman has gone 4-for-19 with a home run, three RBI and a stolen base during his six-start run.

• Rangers' Cody Freeman: Idle for series opener

  Rotowire Sep 15, 2025

  Freeman is out of the lineup for Monday's game against the Astros. After going 7-for-25 (.280 average) with two doubles and three RBI while starting in each of the last seven games, Freeman will get a breather for the series opener in Houston. Dylan Moore will get the nod at second base at Freeman's expense.

• Rangers' Cody Freeman: Plays role in comeback

  Rotowire Sep 14, 2025

  Freeman started at second base and went 2-for-4 with a double in Saturday's 3-2 win over the Mets. After leading off the top of ninth inning with a single, Freeman was replaced by a pinch runner (Dustin Harris) that eventually scored the game-winning run. The start at second base was the fourth consecutive for Freeman, who has been part of the rotation replacing an injured Marcus Semien (foot), which includes Dylan Moore and Ezequiel Duran. Freeman has also helped out in right field due to Adolis Garcia (quadriceps) being on the mend. Since being called up to Texas in August, Freeman's slashed .235/.254/.353 with two home runs, nine RBI and eight runs scored over 20 games.

• Rangers' Cody Freeman: Swats second homer

  Rotowire Sep 1, 2025

  Freeman went 2-for-3 with a two-run home run, an additional RBI and a walk in Monday's 7-5 extra-inning win over the Diamondbacks. Freeman has filled a short-side platoon role at second base since Marcus Semien (foot) exited the lineup, though he was in the lineup versus a right-hander (Ryne Nelson) in this contest. Freeman is batting .225 over his first 15 major-league games, adding two homers, seven RBI, two doubles, six runs scored and no stolen bases over 42 plate appearances. He'll need to find more consistency at the plate to carve out a larger role even with the absences of Semien and Corey Seager (appendectomy).

• Rangers' Cody Freeman: Clubs first major-league homer

  Rotowire Aug 23, 2025

  Freeman started at second base and went 2-for-4 with a two-run home run and an additional run scored during Saturday's 10-0 win over the Guardians. Freeman started the Rangers' blowout in style in the second inning, when he took Logan Allen deep to left field for his first major-league home run. Freeman has started in five of the Rangers' past seven games, including three games at third base and one each at second and in right field. His utility should afford him plenty of playing time, particularly after the Rangers placed second baseman Marcus Semien (foot) on the 10-day injured list Saturday.

• Rangers' Cody Freeman: Poaching starts from Jung at 3B

  Rotowire Aug 21, 2025

  Freeman will start at third base and bat eighth in Thursday's game against the Royals. Since being called up from Triple-A Round Rock on Sunday, Freeman has gone just 1-for-14 at the dish, but he will stick in the lineup for the fourth time in five games nonetheless. During that five-game stretch, he's made three of those starts against right-handed pitching and three at third base, where he could occupy the strong side of a platoon with the struggling Josh Jung until super-utility player Josh Smith likely gets pushed back to the infield once right fielder Adolis Garcia (ankle) returns from the injured list.

• Rangers' Cody Freeman: Makes first MLB start

  Rotowire Jul 21, 2025

  Freeman started at third base and went 0-for-3 in Sunday's 2-1 loss to the Tigers. Freeman had his contract selected from Triple-A Round Rock on Friday and made his first MLB start. He's unlucky in that his first start in the show came against Detroit lefty Tarik Skubal (2.19 ERA, 2nd in MLB), but Rangers manager Bruce Bochy typically uses a right-handed batter at third base when facing a southpaw. With Josh Jung back in the minors, the Rangers' hot corner has become a rotation of Josh Smith against righties with Ezequiel Duran and now Freeman against lefties.

• Rangers' Cody Freeman: Promoted to majors

  Rotowire Jul 18, 2025

  The Rangers selected Freeman's contract from Triple-A Round Rock on Friday, Evan Grant of The Dallas Morning News reports. Freeman has spent all season in Triple-A, where he owns a .315/.367/.494 slash line alongside 12 homers, 54 RBI, 60 runs scored and eight steals through 79 games. The 24-year-old has spent most of his time this year at third base, but he also has experience at second, shortstop and catcher. He'll presumably serve as bench depth while Sam Haggerty (ankle) is on the IL.
