Heim was pulled from Wednesday's contest against Houston due to left wrist soreness.
EDGE Analysis
Heim was grabbing at his left side and his left wrist after a swing in the fourth inning, and it's now been confirmed to be the wrist that's giving him problems. The Rangers will keep an eye on Heim, and he'll get to take advantage of Texas' day off Thursday to rest before potentially returning Friday against San Diego.

Heim was removed early from Wednesday's game against the Astros, Evan Grant of The Dallas Morning News reports.
EDGE Analysis
Heim appeared to tweak something on a swing during the fourth inning. He'll presumably undergo imaging, and the Rangers should provide an update on his status in the near future. Until then, he should be considered day-to-day.

Heim moved up a spot in the order and went 1-for-3 with a walk, two RBI and a run scored in Sunday's 8-4 win over the Dodgers.
EDGE Analysis
Heim, who normally bats sixth, was moved to the five-hole as part of the adjustment to cover for the unavailable Adolis Garcia (hand). The catcher has knocked in 10 runs over eight games since the All-Star break, going 4-for-8 with runners in scoring position. Heim is second on the Rangers with 69 RBI and leads all catchers in the category.

Heim went 2-for-4 with a home run and three RBI in Wednesday's 5-1 win over the Rays.
EDGE Analysis
Heim broke open a close game with a three-run homer in the eighth inning. It was the catcher's second home run in five games since the All-Star break. While memories of Heim's fade in the second half of last season are fresh, it should be noted that he experienced that drop-off after about 300 plate appearances. He's up to 337 plate appearances and has not showed signs of a similar fate in 2023.

Heim is absent from the lineup for Monday's game against the Rays.
EDGE Analysis
Mitch Garver will handle the catching for Dane Dunning as Heim gets a breather. After drawing the start behind the plate for the American League in the All-Star Game last Tuesday, Heim caught each of Texas' three games versus Cleveland over the weekend and went 4-for-11 with a pair of extra-base knocks.

Heim went 3-for-5 with a home run, a double, four RBI and two runs scored in Friday's victory against the Guardians.
EDGE Analysis
Heim already had three RBI before capping off his night with an eighth-inning homer. The breakout catcher has belted six long balls over his last 20 games, giving him 13 this season. He's slashing a robust .287/.342/.490 with 62 RBI and 34 extra-base hits through 322 plate appearances.

Heim is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Nationals.
EDGE Analysis
With Heim having been voted as the American League's starting catcher in Tuesday's All-Star Game, he'll get a breather in the Rangers' final game before the break after he had been behind the plate in each of the past four contests. Mitch Garver will form a battery with starting pitcher Dane Dunning in the series finale in Washington.

Heim went 2-for-3 with a walk, double and two RBI in Thursday's 10-6 loss to the Red Sox.
EDGE Analysis
Heim upped his RBI total to 58, tops among MLB catchers, over 77 games. That's 10 more runs driven than he had last season in 127 contests. Heim is showing no signs of wearing down as he did last season, but it should be noted it wasn't until August that his bat stopped producing.

Heim is absent from the lineup for Tuesday's game versus the Red Sox.
EDGE Analysis
It's merely a day off for the first-time All-Star. Mitch Garver will do the catching for Dane Dunning while Heim grabs a seat.

Heim went 1-for-4 with a solo home run in Friday's 5-3 loss to the Astros.
EDGE Analysis
Heim returned to the lineup after a rest day and finished off a strong month of June (.849 OPS) with his 12th home run of the season. The recently named All-Star starter has maintained a productive bat since Opening Day, when he had two hits and two RBI. Heim ranks second on the Rangers with 57 RBI.
