On July 31, 2017, the Dodgers traded Calhoun, A. J. Alexy, and Brendon Davis to the Texas Rangers for Yu Darvish.

[37] He was reactivated from the IL on June 17,[38] but was optioned back to Triple-A Nashville on July 16 after hitting .225/.267/.408 in a second stint in order to clear a spot for All-Star OF/DH Hunter Pence on the roster.
