Joc Pederson Fractures Wrist as Rangers Lose Cal Quantrill for Postseason

Joc Pederson’s season has taken a difficult turn with a fractured wrist, sending the veteran outfielder to the 10-day injured list on Tuesday.

The injury removes Pederson from the active roster at a time when every late-season at-bat carries extra weight. No timetable beyond the injured-list placement was announced.

Quantrill ruled out for postseason

Cal Quantrill also received discouraging roster news, as he was moved to the 60-day injured list. The transfer means the right-hander will not be available during the playoffs.

For Pederson, the concern is the wrist injury and the uncertainty that follows it. For Quantrill, the calendar has run out: his move to the 60-day list officially closes the door on a potential postseason return.
