Ezequiel Duran News
Texas Rangers manager Bruce Bochy said that infielder Ezequiel Duran will now spend more time at third base and the infield as a whole than in the outfield with starting third baseman Josh Jung (calf) out for two to three weeks with a calf strain suffered in Friday. The team's No. 6 prospect, Justin Foscue, will also get reps at the hot corner, but he'll likely get most of his reps on the right side of the infield at first and second. Jung's injury also opens the door for the coaching staff to get more in-depth looks at non-roster invitees Jonathan Ornelas, Davis Wendzel and Matt Duffy. Duran and Josh Smith will see a lot of time on the left side of the infield this spring with Jung and Corey Seager (groin) injured. Duran, 24, got off to a great start in 2023 before fading down the stretch and not even playing in the team's World Series run. His versatility is an asset, but playing time is going to be hard to come by unless injuries open up time for him on the infield.
Texas Rangers infielder/outfielder Ezequiel Duran is not in the team's starting lineup on Thursday against the division-rival Los Angeles Angels. Duran has just one hit in his last four games, so it's a good time for a breather for the 24-year-old Dominican infielder. In nine games in the month of June, he has gone 8-for-30 (.267) with two doubles, a home run and five RBI in 34 trips to the plate. Duran has become fantasy relevant earlier than expected for Texas and has the raw tools to continue playing every day because of his versatility. So far in just his second major-league season, Duran is hitting an impressive .295 (49-for-166) with 10 doubles, eight home runs, 28 RBI, three stolen bases and 25 runs scored in 49 games. He's currently rostered in 67 percent of Yahoo leagues.
Texas Rangers outfielder Ezequiel Duran went 1-for-3 with a three-run homer in a 9-6 loss to the Los Angeles Angels in 12 innings on Monday. Duran ripped a three-run shot off of Angels starter Tyler Anderson in the second inning. The blast traveled 421 feet and had an exit velocity of 103.9 MPH. Duran is now hitting .310 with eight homers, 25 runs, 28 RBI, and three steals across 158 at-bats. He has been red-hot of late, batting .340 with three homers and nine RBI over his past 15 games. Duran is worth a look as a waiver add in fantasy while he's swinging a hot bat.
