Texas Rangers outfielder Leody Taveras is not in the lineup for Thursday afternoon's series finale against right-hander Luis Castillo and the Seattle Mariners.
What It Means
Taveras will take a rare breather on Thursday afternoon. Evan Carter will cover center field and Wyatt Langford will join him in the left corner.
numberFire's models project Carter for 9.7 and Langford for 7.1 FanDuel points on Thursday. Per our MLB Heat Map, the Rangers' implied total (4.41) is No. 7 out of 20 active teams in the majors today.
