Duran started at shortstop and went 1-for-4 in Friday's 5-1 loss to the Angels.
The Rangers have used a few bodies to cover shortstop since Corey Seager (hip) was placed on the 10-day injured list. Duran, who joined Jonathan Ornelas and Josh Smith as part of the fill-in crew, has hit safely in three consecutive games and is batting .250 (10-for-40) since returning the majors in late July. He was a competent bench bat for the 2023 World Series champions but has been unable to repeat that level of production in 2024.
