Tyler Mahle To Be Sidelined Beyond Trade Deadline
Briefly

Tyler Mahle of the Texas Rangers has been diagnosed with a rotator cuff strain, leading to a two-week timeout from activities with no MLB game participation expected before the July 31 trade deadline. While General Manager Chris Young has downplayed long-term concerns, Mahle’s stellar 2.34 ERA over his 14 starts indicates his value in the rotation. The injury risks complicating the Rangers' playoff pursuit and potentially diminishes Mahle's trade value, which is further complicated by their current under-.500 record and struggling offense.
