Fantasy Impact: He is expected to share catching responsibilities with Danny Jansen this season. Manager Skip Schumaker said Friday that a back injury will keep Higashioka out of the lineup through Sunday.

Jung (hamstring) was originally projected to rejoin the lineup on Friday against Chicago. Texas has opted to provide him with additional rest days instead. (Source: Shawn McFarland)

Fantasy Impact: He is now expected to return to game action on Sunday against Seattle. Luke Hanson will start at third base and bat ninth for the Rangers on Friday.
