Pederson went 1-for-2 with a solo home run in Monday's 4-2 loss to the Yankees.
Pederson entered the game as a pinch hitter in the seventh inning and belted a solo home run. It was just the second home run and third extra-base hit over 27 games this season for Pederson. He'll continue to serve as the designated hitter against right-handers, but the Rangers should be open to replacement options. Since signing with Texas in 2025, Pederson has slashed .192/.301/.332 with 11 home runs over 123 regular-season games.
