Rangers' Ezequiel Duran: Idle for second straight game
Ezequiel Duran is out of the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Brewers.After a stretch of five consecutive starts at four different positions, Duran will take a seat for the second day in a row, with both of his absences coming while the Brewers have sent right-handers to the mound. Duran looks like he'll mainly be limited to a short-side platoon role in the Texas infield while the Texas Rangers turn to Josh Smith and Cody Freeman as their preferred double-play tandem against right-handed pitching.

Rangers' Ezequiel Duran: Gaining foothold in lineup
Ezequiel Duran is batting eighth and playing second base in Sunday's game against the Athletics.Duran will remain in the lineup for the fourth time in five games and will be occupying the keystone for the second day in a row. With super-utility man Josh Smith likely to see most of his playing time at shortstop moving forward due to Corey Seager (appendectomy) being potentially lost for the season, Duran could end up emerging as the Texas Rangers' primary option at second base. Duran has been productive at the plate throughout August, slashing .328/.349/.410 with no home runs and three stolen bases through 20 games on the month.

Rangers' Ezequiel Duran: Sitting after three straight starts
Ezequiel Duran is out of the lineup for Monday's game against the Angels.Duran will head to the bench for the series opener, but he had started in each of the last three contests and should be in store for an uptick in playing time after Marcus Semien (foot) was deactivated Saturday with a likely season-ending injury. Josh Smith will cover second base Monday, but if the Texas Rangers prefer to use the versatile Smith in the outfield while Evan Carter (wrist) is on the shelf, Duran could have a fairly clear path to making regular starts at the keystone.

Rangers' Ezequiel Duran: Enters for injured teammate
Ezequiel Duran entered Sunday's game in the seventh inning after first baseman Jake Burger was removed with a wrist injury. Duran finished out the game at first base and went 0-for-1 with a walk in a 10-4 victory over the Blue Jays.There's no shortage of players on the roster that can play first base, and Duran could be the choice against lefties should Burger miss any time. Against right-handers, manager Bruce Bochy has Josh Smith, Rowdy Tellez and Joc Pederson that hit from the left side of the plate.
