Rangers Place Ezequiel Duran On 10-Day Injured List; Travis Jankowski Activated

The Rangers announced a series of roster moves this afternoon, most notably the news that Ezequiel Duran has been placed on the 10-day injured list (retroactive to May 24) due to mild discomfort in his right oblique.  Outfielder Travis Jankowski was activated from his own 10-day IL stint and will take Jankowski’s place on the…

Ezequiel Duran Officially Placed On Injured List On Saturday

Texas Rangers utility man Ezequiel Duran (oblique) requires a trip to the 10-day injured list, retroactive to May 24, due to right oblique discomfort. He's been out of the lineup with the pain for a few days and Texas has elected to play it safe with their breakout infielder. The 24-year-old brings a budding .301 average and .855 OPS with seven long balls, 23 RBI, and three swipes to the mend. It behooves fantasy managers to stash the aggressive Duran, who possess plenty of untapped power and speed potential still in his reserves. Each of the right-hander's xBA, xSLG, and sprint speed reside in the 90th percentile of major leaguers, per Statcast.

Ezequiel Duran Out With Injury Wednesday

Texas Rangers infielder Ezequiel Duran (rib cage) had some rib-cage soreness during a swing on Tuesday night and is out of the starting lineup on Wednesday against the Pittsburgh Pirates. Duran says he's OK and the Rangers are saying he's probably fine as well, but they are giving him the day off as a precaution. Fantasy managers should consider the 24-year-old to be day-to-day for now. Corey Seager is serving as the designated hitter and batting second, while Josh H. Smith is at shortstop and batting eighth on Wednesday against Pirates right-hander Johan Oviedo. Duran has been excellent for fantasy managers through 40 games, hitting .301 (41-for-136) with eight doubles, seven home runs, 23 RBI, three steals and 19 runs scored.

Ezequiel Duran Gets Rare Rest Day

Texas Rangers second baseman Ezequiel Duran is out of the starting lineup for Monday's game against the Pittsburgh Pirates. This appears to be a rare rest day for the right-hander slugger. He has played in 22 straight games, so Duran could use a day off. He's slashing .308/.348/.526 with seven homers, 23 RBI in 33 games this season. Fantasy managers should adjust their lineups accordingly with Duran on the bench. The expectation is that he'll be back in the lineup following Monday's contest.

Ezequiel Duran To Continue Seeing Playing Time

Texas Rangers manager Bruce Bochy said on Tuesday that infielder Ezequiel Duran will continue to get "a lot" of playing time, even after shortstop Corey Seager (hamstring) returns from the injured list. Duran has been starting every day and was bumped up to the second spot in the batting order on Tuesday against the Seattle Mariners. The 23-year-old Dominican infielder came into Tuesday's game hitting an impressive .307 (27-for-88) with four doubles, four home runs, 16 RBI, two stolen bases and 12 runs scored in 27 games played for the Rangers. Duran will need to draw more free passes if he wants to keep his average and on-base percentage high, but he's clearly worth holding onto in deep-mixed leagues if he continues to see regular playing time in Texas' potent lineup.

The Rangers' Options At Shortstop

The Rangers were dealt one of the more notable early-season injuries. Star shortstop Corey Seager pulled up on a double during Tuesday’s night matchup in Kansas City. He was diagnosed with a Grade 2 strain of his left hamstring. That’ll cost him a month at minimum. Seager had been off to a .359/.469/.538 start. Texas won’t…

Ezequiel Duran Plays Outfield Tuesday

Texas Rangers third baseman Ezequiel Duran made the start in left field against the Kansas City Royals on Tuesday in the team's Cactus League finale. Duran finished the contest 1-for-2 with a double, run scored and a walk in the 5-3 victory. The 23-year-old had a fine spring training for the Rangers, hitting .357/.390/.714 in 26 Cactus League games. He's expected to make the Opening Day roster as a utilityman off the bench for manager Bruce Bochy's squad. He has the ability to play shortstop, third base, second base and the outfield, so he gives Texas plenty of defensive versatility on top of his offensive abilities. And with Leody Taveras (oblique) starting the season on the injured list, Duran could force his way into early playing time in the outfield.
