The Rangers selected Osuna's contract from Triple-A Round Rock on Sunday.

With Joc Pederson (hand) landing on the injured list, the Rangers will bring aboard another left-handed hitter in Osuna. After a standout showing in the Cactus League this spring, the 22-year-old has continued to excel between stops at Double-A Frisco and Round Rock this season, slashing a collective .279/.386/.416 with two home runs and nine stolen bases over 184 plate appearances. While he could serve as the primary replacement for Pederson against right-handed pitching, the Rangers may prefer to cycle a number of players at the designated-hitter spot and instead use Osuna primarily in the outfield. He has experience at all three outfield spots but has played only center and left field in 2025.
