The Rangers reinstated Duran from the paternity list Friday. Duran missed the Rangers' last three games while on paternity leave, but the 25-year-old will be available for the upcoming weekend series against the Angels. For the month of September, Duran has slashed .288/.327/.442 with five doubles, one home run and six RBI across 55 plate appearances.

The Rangers placed Duran on the paternity list Tuesday. Duran will be allowed to miss up to three games while he spends time with his growing family, and he's expected to take over for Josh Jung (wrist) as the Rangers' primary third baseman once he returns. In the meantime, Dustin Harris and Matt Duffy will come up from Triple-A Round Rock to help replenish Texas' infield depth.

Duran isn't in Texas' lineup for Tuesday's game against the Athletics. After going 6-for-13 with an RBI during the Rangers' last series against Seattle, Duran will catch a breather to begin Tuesday's series opener. In his absence, Jonathan Ornelas will start at third base and bat ninth.

Duran started at third base and went 2-for-5 with an RBI and a run scored in Saturday's 8-4 loss to the Mariners. Duran got the nod at the hot corner as Josh Jung (wrist/hand) was unavailable for a second consecutive game. Jonathan Ornelas and Duran have filled in for Jung the last two games and could finish out the season in that role. Saturday's loss eliminated the Rangers from the postseason, which could prompt the team to shut down Jung for the rest of the season.

Duran is not in the lineup for Tuesday's game against the Blue Jays. Duran started the previous three games but will sit Tuesday while in the midst of a 1-for-15 slump. Justin Foscue will bat ninth as the designated hitter versus Toronto righty Chris Bassitt.
