The Texas Rangers placed Jansen on IL retroactive to Wednesday with a right forearm strain before signing catcher Elias Diaz to add catching depth. Across the American League, the New York Yankees elevated Sánchez from Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre, optioning J.C. Escarra to create roster space for their right-handed catching option.
