The 25-year-old is 1-for-2 in a pair of pinch-hitting plate appearances for the Rangers to begin the season after hitting .266 with 18 homers and 14 stolen bases across 122 games at Triple-A in the 2023 season.

Fantasy Impact

Foscue will take the roster spot of Josh Jung who was injured Monday. The 25-year-old slashed .266/.394/.468 with 18 home runs and 84 RBI in 122 games in Triple-A last season. Foscue should see plenty of opportunities at third base while Jung is out.

Justin Foscue was seen taking defensive reps at third base on Saturday.

Fantasy Impact

Foscue is looking to make the Rangers Opening Day roster out of Spring Training. He'll look to have a big camp once games begin later this month.

Justin Foscue signed with the Rangers for $3.25 million as the fourteenth overall pick from the recent MLB draft.

Fantasy Impact

The second baseman out of Mississippi State signs an under-slot deal, as MLB reported that the assigned value was a little over $4 million. The 21-year old is a high-floor, low-ceiling prospect with the potential to be an average major leaguer.

The Texas Rangers have selected Mississippi State 2B Justin Foscue with the No. 14 overall pick in the 2020 MLB Draft.

Fantasy Impact

Foscue is an above average hitter who hit .321 in 16 games this spring for Mississippi State. Nothing stands out in his game, but he has the ability to hit it all over the field. Foscue has some power potential and will most likely be called up to play 2B or 3B for the Rangers in the near future.
