Moreland isn't in the lineup for Tuesday's game with the Yankees.

EDGE Analysis

Moreland will sit in favor of switch-hitter Jurickson Profar starting at first and facing southpaw starter CC Sabathia. Profar will bat eighth while Moreland gets a rest day.

Moreland went 1-for-3 with a solo homer, two runs and a walk Sunday at the Cardinals.

EDGE Analysis

Moreland left the yard for the 11th time this year to tie the contest in the fourth inning of a game the Rangers would eventually win. He's now hit safely in each of the last nine games he's started to raise his batting average to .231.

Moreland is not in the lineup for Tuesday's game against the A's.

EDGE Analysis

With two hits Monday, Moreland extended his hitting streak to six games (four homers during that span), but he will give way to Ryan Rua at first base Tuesday against lefty Eric Surkamp. The Rangers want to keep Rua involved with Shin-Soo Choo back, and a platoon at first base would make perfect sense.

Moreland will start at first base and bat eighth in the order Sunday against the Mariners.

EDGE Analysis

Thanks in large part to Adrian Beltre's hamstring injury, which will sideline him for a fourth straight game Sunday, Moreland has been able to reclaim an everyday spot in the lineup. With the hot-hitting Jurickson Profar now manning third base in place of Beltre and Prince Fielder no longer encroaching on his duties at first base, Moreland will be making his fifth consecutive start. He's started to heat up over the preceding four games, going a collective 6-for-15 with two homers, three doubles and three RBI.

Moreland is out of the lineup Tuesday against the Astros, Rangers VP of Comm. John Blake reports.

EDGE Analysis

Moreland was also held out of Monday's contest after seeing his season average drop to just .206, so it appears he may be losing his grip on a full-time starting role. Jurickson Profar has been getting work at first base and will get the start there Tuesday in Moreland's place.

Moreland was held out of Monday's lineup and could face added pressure with Jurickson Profar being viewed as an occasional option at first base, Ryan Posner of MLB.com reports.

EDGE Analysis

Moreland entered Monday's play with just five hits in his past 56 at-bats over his last 16 games, dropping his season average to .206.

Moreland went 1-for-4 with a three-run homer and two strikeouts Sunday against the Pirates.

EDGE Analysis

Moreland made the most of the only time he made contact, blasting a three-run shot to right field. The first baseman went yard for the second straight game, but his struggles can't be ignored since he's gone 3-for-23 (.087) over the last seven games. Perhaps the two consecutive homers are what he needs to get back on track.

Moreland is out of Sunday's starting lineup against the Astros, Evan Grant of the Dallas Morning News reports.

EDGE Analysis

Moreland will take a seat as the Astros send southpaw Dallas Keuchel to the mound. Ryan Rua will shift to first base in his place, batting seventh for the Rangers. Texas will face the Angels and the right-handed Nick Tropeano on Monday, making that the next chance for him to rejoin the lineup.

Moreland is not in the lineup Tuesday against the White Sox, Stefan Stevenson of the Fort Worth Star-Telegram reports.

EDGE Analysis

With the Texas lineup set to oppose southpaw Carlos Rodon, the left-handed Moreland will take a seat Tuesday. Ryan Rua will take over at first base in his stead and bat sixth.

Moreland went 2-for-4 with a two-run homer in Saturday's 10-5 victory over the Tigers.

EDGE Analysis

The 30-year-old slugger kept his hot hitting in May going, blasting a homer for the first time during the month and extending his hitting streak to four games in the process. Moreland has also reached base safely in 12 straight contests, and has raised his average 66 points to .260 since April 13.
