Scratched from lineup Culberson was scratched from the lineup for Thursday's game in Miami.
Impact He had been scheduled to pick up a start in the middle infield while Corey Seager received a breather following his appearance in Los Angeles for the All-Star Game on Tuesday. Culberson's removal from the lineup isn't believed to be the result of any injury; instead, the Rangers are likely just eager to get a look at rookie Ezequiel Duran, who was called up from Triple-A Round Rock after Brad Miller (neck) was placed on the 10-day injured list. Duran will start at second bae and bat ninth while Marcus Semien mans shortstop.

Starts in left field Culberson started in left field and went 2-for-3 in Saturday's 3-2 win over Seattle.
Impact Texas manager Chris Woodward usually finds a spot for Culberson, a career .217-hitter against righties, whenever an opponent throws a left-handed starter. Left field, like third base, is an unsettled position in the Rangers' lineup. Culberson is the third player to start there over the last three games. With Brad Miller (hip) on the injured list, Culberson joins the mix along with Andy Ibanez and Eli White, who started in center Saturday. Woodward uses the spot for matchups, depending on the handedness of the opposing starter. When all bodies are healthy, Miller is the likely starter against righties, while White gets the at-bats against lefties.

Enters for injured Smith Culberson entered Friday's game in the top of the ninth inning after third baseman Josh Smith was removed with a shoulder injury.
Impact Culberson was then removed for pinch hitter Andy Ibanez in the bottom half of the ninth against right-hander Paul Sewald. Smith had started four of the last five games and was emerging as the primary option at the hot corner. If Smith misses time, Culberson will start against lefties while Ibanez slots in against righties.

Gets another start vs. lefty Culberson will start at third base and bat ninth Thursday against the Astros.
Impact The righty-hitting Culberson will draw into the lineup against a lefty starting pitcher (Framber Valdez), and most of the 33-year-old's starting opportunities moving forward will come almost exclusively against southpaws. After delivering a massive .932 OPS in 144 plate appearances versus lefties in 2021, Culberson has dropped down to a .633 OPS in 32 plate appearances so far in 2022.

Adolis Garcia highlighted a three-hit, four-RBI day with a bases-clearing triple in the third inning to help the Texas Rangers beat the Atlanta Braves 7-3 on SundayMAY 1, 2022 • Associated Press
Drives in three runs Culberson went 1-for-2 with a double and three RBI in Friday's 9-6 loss to the Angels.
Impact Culberson poked an RBI groundout in the second inning before knocking a two-run double in the fourth, both against starter Reid Detmers. The 33-year-old has now collected a hit in each of his three appearances this season. A hot bat could earn him more playing time, but Culberson is still serving in a utility role as of now.
