Availability
Justin Foscue went 2-for-4 in a win over the Blue Jays with a home run, one run scored, and three RBI.
Fantasy Impact
Foscue continues a underwhelming stretch at the plate, picking up hits in three of his last 11 contests. The 27-year-old remains one of the more explosive bats in an inconsistent Rangers lineup, batting .268 with five home runs, 13 RBI, and 11 runs scored across 36 games.
Justin Foscue went 1-for-1 with a home run and a walk in two plate appearances off the bench against the Twins on Thursday. The homer continued a productive stretch for the infielder, who is batting .274/.333/.493 through 81 plate appearances this season.
Fantasy Impact
Foscue has been limited primarily to starts against left-handed pitching since the Rangers added Nicky Lopez. His playing-time outlook could become even more crowded with Josh Smith back in the lineup.
With Corey Seager back from the injured list, Ezequiel Duran is expected to take over as the primary starter at second base, further limiting Foscue's opportunities. He had already lost his semi-regular role at the position when Texas added Nicky Lopez, and Sunday marked just his second start in the last eight games — both coming against left-handed pitching.
Fantasy Impact
Foscue got the scoring started with a two-run homer in the first inning, finishing 1-for-4 with a walk, two RBI, and a run scored in the 10-0 win over Cleveland.
Justin Foscue went 3-for-3 in a loss to the Rockies with a home run, two doubles, one run scored, three RBI, and one walk.
Fantasy Impact
Foscue has heated up at the plate of late, picking up hits in three of his last four games. The 27-year-old has offered manager Skip Schumaker one of the more impactful options in an underperforming Rangers lineup, slashing .280 with two home runs, five RBI, and two runs scored across 10 games.
Rangers manager Skip Schumaker said Justin Foscue will get most of the second base reps.
Fantasy Impact
The Rangers are moving around their infield with Corey Seager placed on the injured list. Foscue will see most of the reps at second base with Ezequiel Duran at shortstop.
