The Texas Rangers placed third baseman Josh Jung on the 10-day injured list Sunday due to neck spasms.
The move is made retroactive to Saturday.
Jung, 27, went 3-for-7 with an RBI in Texas' first two games of the season before sitting out Saturday's contest against the Boston Red Sox.
He is batting .259 with 35 homers and 101 RBIs in 196 career games with the Rangers.
Utility players Josh Smith and Ezequiel Duran were expected to man third base in his absence. Smith, however, sustained a left quad contusion during Saturday's game.
'With Smitty not ready to go, we had to make a move with (Jung),' Texas manager Bruce Bochy said on Sunday. 'He may get three or four extra days than the minimum, where he would be ready, but maybe that's a good thing. We want to get this thing cleared up (with Jung) since it's a recurring issue now. We're hoping Smitty can go tomorrow.'
Also on Sunday, the Rangers recalled infielder Jonathan Ornelas from Triple-A Round Rock.
Ornelas, 24, is batting .205 with three RBIs in 26 career games over two seasons with the Rangers.
