    Rangers' Leody Taveras: Idle Friday

    Leody Taveras isn't in the Texas Rangers' lineup Friday against the Angels.Taveras hasn't fared well against southpaws this season, putting up a .520 OPS in 101 plate appearances versus lefties, so he'll grab a seat on the bench Friday against Reid Detmers and the Halos. Wyatt Langford will shift to center field as a result, putting Ezequiel Duran in left while Matt Duffy starts at the hot corner.

    Rangers' Leody Taveras: Records first September RBI

    Leody Taveras went 2-for-3 with a two-run home run in Saturday's 5-4 loss to Seattle.Taveras responded to the Mariners scoring in the second inning with his 10th homer of the season a half inning later to give Texas a lead. The RBI were the first during the month of September for Taveras, who entered the game batting .143 (3-for-21) over the nine previous contests. His elite defense keeps him employed, but it was easier to put him in a lineup every day when Taveras hit like he did in 2023 (.733 OPS).

    Rangers' Leody Taveras: Swipes 19th bag

    Leody Taveras went 0-for-1 with two walks, a run scored and a stolen base in Wednesday's 14-4 loss to the Diamondbacks.The center fielder has swiped three bags in his last five games, giving him 19 pilfers on the season, but that's about the only real fantasy contribution Taveras has been making of late. His homer drought sits at 31 games, a stretch in which he's slashing a meager .209/.250/.264 with nine RBI and 13 runs, and his struggles at the plate have been costing him playing time as the Texas Rangers consider their options for 2025.
