Lance Berkman went 2-for-4 with a two-run homer off Nick Hagadone to lead the Rangers to a 6-3 win over the Indians on Monday.

Berkman had just one RBI since May 24 before giving the Rangers the lead tonight. His numbers have steadily declined since April, but he is due to heat back up soon. Maybe this will get him started.

Lance Berkman is not in the Rangers' lineup Sunday.

It's just a day off for "Puma." The Rangers are using Adrian Beltre in the DH spot Sunday, with Leury Garcia getting the start at the hot corner.

Lance Berkman was ejected from Saturday's game for arguing a called third strike in the first inning.

Jeff Baker replaced him in the DH spot.

Lance Berkman had a two-run homer and a two-run single Wednesday in the rout of the Angels.

The homer was just Berkman's second, but he's cruising along with a cool .345 average. He's also walked 14 times in 17 games, so he's been a really nice No. 3 hitter for the Rangers thus far.

Lance Berkman is in Friday's lineup against the Mariners as the designated hitter.

Berkman didn't play this week in Chicago, partially because the DH wasn't available under NL rules, but also because of the chilly and wet weather. Jeff Baker is starting at first base Friday with southpaw Joe Saunders on the hill for Seattle.

Lance Berkman is not in the Rangers' starting lineup on Saturday evening against the Mariners.

It's a routine day of maintenance for the veteran designated hitter. He should play in Sunday's series finale.

Lance Berkman isn't in Wednesday's lineup against the Rays.

Berkman is just getting the day off. Nelson Cruz will serve as the DH on Wednesday while Jeff Baker will play right field. The start of Wednesday's game will be delayed at least one hour due to rain, but they are going to try to get it in.

Lance Berkman went 3-for-4 with two RBI in the Rangers' win over the Rays on Tuesday.

Berkman now has seven RBI through the Rangers' first eight games. The 37-year-old is thriving in the middle of Texas' lineup, batting a robust .480. The designated hitter role seems to suit Berkman well.

Lance Berkman will make his spring debut at first base on Monday night.

Berkman has been limited to DH duties so far this spring, but he's finally ready to play the field. The veteran slugger is expected to function as the team's primary DH during the season, but he may also see occasional playing time at first base.

Rangers manager Ron Washington said Thursday that Lance Berkman will play first base "very soon."

Berkman has experiencing no issues with his calf or knees since making his Cactus League debut a few weeks ago. The veteran slugger is expected to play primarily at DH this season, but Texas can use him at first if he feels up to it. And he's been "chomping at the bit" to get some time on defense, according to Evan Grant of the Dallas Morning News.
