Ezequiel Duran News
Texas Rangers infielder/outfielder Ezequiel Duran kept a hot bat on Sunday versus the Colorado Rockies. Duran went 2-for-3 with a walk and a double. His two hits marked his fourth straight multi-hit performance. Duran has seen an uptick in play with rookie outfielder Wyatt Langford (hamstring) and third baseman Josh Jung (wrist) both on the injured list and has taken advantage of it with 13 hits over his last 26 at-bats. He doesn't have any homers this year and only has four RBI with one stolen base, but managers looking for hits should consider Duran. With eligibility at first baseman, third base, shortstop and outfielder, Duran can be a helpful player for managers in deeper leagues until he cools off with the bat.
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.
