Luis Curvelo - Beginning rehab assignment Curvelo (shoulder) will begin a rehab assignment with Triple-A Round Rock on Friday.

Impact Curvelo has been sidelined since April 15 with a right shoulder impingement, but he appears to be nearing a return to the mound. The right-hander pitched in four games out of the Texas bullpen prior to the injury, surrendering three runs on six hits and two walks with three strikeouts across five innings.

Corey Seager - Not in lineup Friday Seager is not in the starting lineup for Friday's game against the Astros.

Impact Seager is 0-for-25 at the plate over his last seven games and will get a breather, as Ezequiel Duran moves over to shortstop for Texas. On the season, Seager is slashing a disappointing .179/.286/.353 with seven home runs, 20 RBI, 22 runs scored, one stolen base and a 22:50 BB:K across 182 plate appearances.

Cody Freeman - Ready for rehab assignment Freeman (back) will begin a rehab assignment with the Rangers' Arizona Complex League affiliate Thursday.

Impact Freeman missed most of spring training due to a stress reaction in his lower back but has been cleared for games after a long rehab process. Because he's been sidelined for so long, Freeman's rehab assignment could last a while. When the Rangers decide the 25-year-old is ready to rejoin the active roster, he'll fill a utility role.

Last Night in Baseball: Blue Jays Stun Rays on 10th-Inning Walk-Off Grand Slam

Ezequiel Duran - Involved in late comeback win Duran went 1-for-4 with a double, an RBI and a run scored in Wednesday's 6-5 win over Arizona.

Impact Duran laced a two-out, RBI double and scored in the ninth inning as part of the Rangers' three-run rally to overcome a 5-3 deficit. He's finding a comfortable home at second base with Josh Smith (wrist/lower body) sidelined on the injured list. Duran has hit safely in 10 off 11 contests, slashing .325/.404/.600 with six extra-base hits, eight RBI, one steal and eight runs scored during that stretch. Given that Duran has been good against pitchers of either hand, he could take over as the club's primary second baseman, which had been Smith's job prior to his injury.

Joc Pederson - Remains at leadoff Pederson batted atop the order and went 0-for-4 in Wednesday's 6-5 win over the Diamondbacks.

Impact Pederson batted leadoff for a second consecutive game, both against right-handers, while Brandon Nimmo followed him in the order. Nimmo has been the team's leadoff hitter every game in which he's started. The Rangers haven't faced a lefty since manager Skip Schumaker tweaked the top of the order, but presumably Pederson wouldn't be in the lineup against southpaws. He's had just five plate appearances against left-hander all season.

Jake Burger - Homers in four-RBI effort Burger went 2-for-4 with a home run and four RBI in Wednesday's 6-5 win over Arizona.

Impact Burger matched a season high in RBI on Wednesday, knocking multiple hits for the ninth time this year as well. The 30-year-old first baseman hasn't been all that effective at the plate overall in 2026, but the Rangers are lacking in other viable alternatives at the cold corner to push Burger for action on a consistent basis. Through 159 at-bats, Burger is hitting .226 with seven homers, five doubles and 27 RBI.

Jacob Latz - Melts down in second blown save Latz was charged with a blown save Wednesday against the Diamondbacks, allowing three runs on three hits and no walks. He failed to record an out.

Impact Brought in to preserve a 3-2 lead in the ninth inning, Latz allowed six baserunners and even threw a wild pitch in a calamitous outing. The 30-year-old left-hander already had a loose grip on Texas' closer role, but his numbers remain strong enough that the Rangers figure to continue deploying him as their primary ninth-inning option. Through 21.2 innings, Latz has a 2.08 ERA, 0.60 WHIP and 17:5 K:BB while converting five of his seven save chances.

1 DAY AGO • ROTOWIRE

Kumar Rocker - Five strong innings in no-decision Rocker took a no-decision Wednesday against the Diamondbacks, allowing no runs on three hits and four walks in five innings. He struck out three.

Impact The 26-year-old right-hander turned in one of his best starts of the season Wednesday. Although Rocker matched a season worst in free passes, he scattered three singles during his first scoreless outing of the year and also tied a season most in pitches (97). Rocker still has an underwhelming 4.34 ERA, 1.50 WHIP and 30:17 K:BB across 37.1 innings, so fantasy managers may want to consider shying away from him in his next scheduled appearance at hitter-friendly Coors Field against the Rockies.
