Lopez is out of the lineup for Monday's game against the White Sox.
The Rangers will keep Lopez on the bench for a fifth consecutive game. Two of his absences from the lineup have come against right-handed pitchers, so the left-handed-hitting Lopez may have lost his grip on a strong-side platoon role in the Texas infield. Lopez's downturn in playing time comes while he's struggled to a .111/.167/.148 slash line over his last 23 games.
