Nomar Mazara sitting Thursday for the Rangers

Texas Rangers outfielder Nomar Mazara is getting a rest Thursday against the Seattle Mariners.

What It Means:

Contrary to previous reports, Adrian Beltre (hamstring) is making his return to the starting lineup tonight in Texas. He won't play the field, though, which means that he'll serve as the DH in place of Mazara.

In 4 plate appearances, Mazara went 0-for-3 with a walk in last night's contest. Going forward, we expect 2 home runs, 8 RBI and a .276 average from him the rest of the year.
