Charlie Culberson on Rangers' bench Monday

Texas Rangers infielder Charlie Culberson is not in the starting lineup for Monday's series opener against right-hander Spenser Watkins and the Baltimore Orioles.

What It Means:

The Rangers continue to limit Culberson to starts against left-handers. Ezequiel Duran is shifting to second base Monday while Josh Smith starts on third and bats ninth. Duran went 1-for-4 with a three-run double in Sunday's 5-2 win over the Los Angeles Angels.

Duran has a $2,600 salary on Monday and numberFire’s models project him for 10.5 FanDuel points. Per our MLB Heat Map, the Rangers’ implied total (4.10) is tied for No. 9 out of 20 active teams Monday.
