Josh Jung | Fantasy Outlook

Josh Jung is swinging a hot bat for the first-place Rangers as he returns to full health

Jung has been excellent over his last six games, slashing .350/.500/.600 to solidify his spot as the everyday third baseman for the first-place Rangers. Texas currently sits at 49-47 and is leaning on Jung's bat as they manage various lineup injuries, including the absence of Corey Seager. After a brief scare involving knee soreness earlier this month, he has returned to form with five walks and seven hits over his last 20 at-bats.

Our models initially projected Jung for a .249 average, but he has far exceeded that with a .298 mark through 87 games this season. While he hasn't homered in his last 14 days, his career profile and elite 1.100 OPS over that span suggest the power remains a significant threat. Given his consistent hard-hit rates and significantly improved plate discipline compared to previous seasons, this high-level production looks like a sustainable breakout.

The Rangers travel to Atlanta for a three-game weekend set beginning Friday to close out the week. Jung faces a gauntlet of Braves arms, including veteran ace Chris Sale and his 2.20 ERA, followed by Owen Murphy and Grant Holmes. Despite the difficult road matchups and high-caliber opposing pitching, Jung’s recent .471 on-base percentage makes him too valuable to sit in most formats as he continues to anchor the Texas infield. Start.
