Heim is out of the lineup Thursday versus the Tigers.

EDGE Analysis

Heim will grab a bit of rest after making five straight starts behind the plate. Mitch Garver is catching for the Rangers in Thursday's matinee, and Ezequiel Duran will fill the DH role.

Heim went 2-for-4 with a solo home run in Sunday's 5-3 loss to the Yankees.

EDGE Analysis

Heim's second-inning home run was his 11th of the season and fourth in the last eight games. The catcher, who was given a rest Friday, had four hits over the two weekend games. Keeping Heim fresh is a goal for 2023 after he tired in August and September of 2022 under the weight of a career-high 450 plate appearances. Thus far, he's maintained a .283/.332/.482 line over 271 PAs.

Heim is not in the starting lineup Friday versus the Yankees.

EDGE Analysis

Heim will take a seat after he went 3-for-13 with a homer, five RBI and two runs scored over the three-game series with the White Sox. Mitch Garver will slot in at catcher while Robbie Grossman enters the lineup at designated hitter and bats sixth in the series opener with New York.

Heim went 2-for-4 with a three-run home run and an additional run scored in Wednesday's 6-3 win over the White Sox.

EDGE Analysis

Heim has homered three times over his last five contests, but this was his first multi-hit effort since June 13. The catcher's power surge has him up to 10 homers on the year, six shy of matching his total from last year. He's enjoyed a breakout year with a .276/.327/.465 slash line, 54 RBI, 38 runs scored and two stolen bases through 65 contests as a fairly regular part of the lineup for a strong offense.

Heim went 1-for-4 with a walk and solo home run in Sunday's 11-7 win over the Blue Jays.

EDGE Analysis

Heim led off the bottom of the fifth inning with a home run to knot the game after the Rangers fell behind, 6-0, early. It was the second straight game with a home run for Heim, who has nine for the season along with 49 RBI through 62 games. He served as the designated hitter Sunday while Mitch Garver caught, something the Rangers can do more of with three catchers on the roster. Keeping Heim fresh over the long haul is a goal after the backstop tired over the second half of 2022.

Heim went 1-for-4 with a solo home run in Saturday's 4-2 win over Toronto.

EDGE Analysis

Heim hit the second of back-to-back home runs in the second inning, and his run was the game-winning score. The young catcher burnished his All-Star resume with his eighth home run and 48th RBI. MLB.com released the All-Star Ballot standings last week, and Heim was second among catchers behind the Orioles' Adley Rutschman.

Heim isn't starting Tuesday against the Cardinals.

EDGE Analysis

Heim extended his hitting streak to nine games after going 1-for-4 Monday while also scoring a run. He'll get a day off Tuesday and will be replaced by Mitch Garver behind home plate. Corey Seager will serve as DH, moving Ezequiel Duran to shortstop and allowing Robbie Grossman to start in left field while batting sixth.

Heim went 2-for-4 with a home run and five RBI in Sunday's 12-3 win over the Mariners.

EDGE Analysis

The catcher is hot with four multi-hit efforts and 13 RBI during his active eight-game hitting streak, during which he's gone 12-for-30 (.400). He's up to an excellent .293/.345/.478 slash line with seven homers, 46 RBI, 31 runs scored, 13 doubles and two stolen bases through 50 contests overall.
