Rangers slugger Gallo tests positive for COVID-19

Texas Rangers slugger Joey Gallo has tested positive for COVID-19, although the team said the All-Star right fielder is asymptomatic.

General manager Jon Daniels said Monday that Gallo is quarantining at his apartment in Dallas and not around teammates. Daniels said Gallo told him that he feels as good as he ever has.

Gallo initially took a coronavirus saliva test as part of the team's intake process on June 27, and got a positive result two days later. The 26-year-old Gallo then took a nasal swab test on June 30 that came back negative, but he had another saliva test that came back positive Sunday.

After being one of the local players who had been able to work out at the Rangers' new ballpark the past several weeks, Gallo has missed the first four days of summer camp at Globe Life Field, including Monday. Daniels had said Sunday that Gallo was still in intake testing.

Gallo has 110 career homers in his 418 big league games. After consecutive 40-homer seasons, he had 22 homers in 70 games last season and was an All-Star before right wrist surgery. He homered in the 2019 All-Star Game.
