www.nbcsports.comI don’t have live access to current news in this turn, but here’s the latest I can share based on recent reporting up to early 2026:
- Kevin Pillar has been with the Texas Rangers, with reports in April 2026 noting back inflammation and a stint on the 10-day injured list, followed by a return to action and a rehab assignment setup in the minors [source coverage from CBS Sports around April 20–21, 2026]. This suggests he’s been working to re-establish himself in the big-league lineup after the IL stint [CBS Sports, April 20, 2026] [CBS Sports, February 22, 2026].
- Earlier in 2025, Pillar’s status included considerations about retirement, but he expressed a desire to play that year and later returned to MLB discussions, including handling a left thumb surgery from the offseason prior to the 2025 season [CBS Sports and RotoWire coverage in 2025] [NBC Sports, July 1, 2025].
