Clear No. 2 catcher in Arlington Heim will catch and bat ninth Wednesday against the Giants.

Impact He'll crack the lineup for only the second time in six games while No. 1 catcher Jose Trevino gets a breather for the day game after a night game.

The 25-year-old switch-hitter is slashing a weak .167/.228/.306 across 80 plate appearances in his first season in Texas.

Impact Manager Chris Woodward told Justice delos Santos of MLB.com that he would have used Trevino on Monday if that game was necessary and was prepared to use him Tuesday if needed. That scenario could have been tested as Adolis Garcia pinch hit for Heim in the ninth inning, but the game ended there. The Rangers revealed that Trevino was dealing with a sore triceps Tuesday and hope the two days off, coupled with a scheduled off-day Wednesday, gets him at full strength for Thursday's series-opener at Houston.
