TORONTO (AP) \u2014 Texas Rangers<\/a> shortstop Corey Seager<\/a> was activated from the concussion list Thursday after the two-time World Series MVP missed 12 games.<\/p>\n

The Rangers made the move before the opener of their four-game series at Toronto, when Seager was in the lineup batting third. It came on the eighth of 15 consecutive days that Texas has a scheduled game.<\/p>\n

Utility player Cody Freeman<\/a> was placed on the 10-day injured list with a herniated disk.<\/p>\n

Seager was on MLB\u2019s seven-day IL for the concussion that resulted from a collision with Kansas City catcher Carter Jensen<\/a> on June 11, though Seager remained in that game and later hit a home run. <\/p>\n

That was only his fifth game back after missing 19 games from May 15-June 4 with lower back inflammation.<\/p>\n

In the 47 games he played before Thursday, Seager hit .186 with nine home runs and 24 RBIs. <\/p>\n

When Seager was activated from the IL the first time, he hit a two-run homer in his first game back that put the Rangers ahead in a 3-2 win over the Cleveland Guardians<\/a> on June 5. That snapped a career-worst 0-for-29 slump in the five-time All-Star\u2019s 12 big league seasons.<\/p>\n

Texas also released infielder Blaine Crim<\/a>, who had hit .263 in 21 games at Triple-A Round Rock since being acquired May 23 on a waiver claim from Colorado.<\/p>\n
