Willie Calhoun, the Texas Rangers’ primary acquisition in the 2017 deadline trade that sent Yu Darvish to the Los Angeles Dodgers, was designated for assignment on Sunday

Sent to Triple-A Ibanez was optioned to Triple-A Round Rock on Sunday, Levi Weaver of The Athletic reports.

Impact This move doesn't come as a major surprise, as Ibanez had starting losing out on playing time and had hit .161 with zero home runs in his last 20 games. Steele Walker's contract was purchased in a corresponding move.

Losing work to Josh Smith Ibanez is out of the lineup for Tuesday's game against the Rays.

Impact The righty-hitting Ibanez has the platoon advantage in his favor with southpaw Ryan Yarbrough on the mound, but it won't be enough to keep him off the bench for the second game in a row. Instead, rookie Josh Smith will draw another start at the hot corner after going 3-for-4 with two runs in his MLB debut in Monday's 9-5 win. Ibanez looks like he'll have to settle for a utility gig with the Rangers presumably prepared to give Smith a trial as their everyday third baseman.

Slated for rest day Ibanez isn't in the starting lineup for Monday's game against the Rays.

Impact Ibanez will get the night off after starting the last two contests for Texas, collecting five hits including a pair of doubles and an RBI over that brief stretch. Josh Smith gets the start at the hot corner and will bat eighth with Ibanez on the bench.

Collects two more hits Ibanez went 2-for-3 with a walk, a double and a run scored in Sunday's 6-5 loss to the Atheltics.

Impact Ibanez is emerging from a three-week slump and has hit safely in three straight games, going 6-for-9 with two doubles, a walk, three RBI and three runs scored over the last three. The 29-year-old infielder, who posted a .277 average in 76 games during his MLB debut in 2021, is up to .214 through 37 contests this season. Ibanez's expected outcome for average is slightly higher than his real-world results.

Posts three-hit day Ibanez started at designated hitter and went 3-for-5 with a double, an RBI and a run scored in Saturday's 11-4 win over the Athletics.

Impact Fresh off a game-winning two-run single as a pinch hitter Friday, Ibanez kept the momentum going with his first three-hit game of the season. He'd been mired in a deep funk, going 2-for-43 in the 15 games prior to Friday's heroics.

MAY 29, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Delivers game-winning knock Ibanez went 1-for-1 with a two-run single and scored a run in Friday's 8-5 win over the Athletics.

Impact Ibanez, who had just two hits over his previous 43 at-bats (.047), stepped in as a pinch hitter for Eli White in the ninth inning of an even game and delivered a go-ahead two-run single. He later came around to score an insurance run. Ibanez is typically out of the starting lineup against lefties, as was the case Wednesday and Friday. With Oakland southpaw Zach Logue the projected starter Saturday, Ibanez figures to be on the bench for the third time in four games.

MAY 28, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Heads to bench Friday Ibanez is out of the lineup for Friday's game at Oakland.

MAY 25, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Slump continues Ibanez started at third base and went 0-for-3 in Tuesday's 5-3 loss to the Angels.

Impact Ibanez is batting just .050 (2-for-40) over 14 games since May 4. Texas third basemen rank last in the majors with a -0.8 WAR, so it's fair wonder when they make a change. Ibanez has started 20 of the team's 41 games at third base while also playing seven at DH, six at first base and two at second.

Not starting Tuesday Ibanez is out of the lineup for Tuesday's game against the Phillies, Levi Weaver of The Athletic reports.

Impact Ibanez was 5-for-11 with two walks, two runs and two stolen bases while starting the past four games, but he'll take a seat Tuesday despite the fact left-hander Ranger Suarez is pitching for Philadelphia. Charlie Culberson will man the hot corner in his place and bat eighth.

MAY 2, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Moves up order Ibanez batted sixth and went 1-for-2 with a walk and a stolen base in Saturday's 3-1 win over Atlanta.

Impact Ibanez had been mired in the lower third of the order before a stretch of consistent hitting resulted in him moving up. He extended his hitting streak to five games and swiped his second bag of the season. Ibanez is a fixture at third base against right-handed starters while Charlie Culberson starts against lefties.

Extends modest hit streak Ibanez went 2-for-3 in Friday's 6-3 loss to Atlanta.

Impact Ibanez extended his hitting streak to four games and has hit safely in six of the last seven (7-for-20, .350) with two extra-base hits and two RBI. He's spent all seven of those games batting seventh or later in the batting order, but Ibanez could move up where there are more RBI opportunities if he continues to hit.
