Grossman will serve as the Rangers' designated hitter and No. 7 hitter in Wednesday's game against the Athletics.
EDGE Analysis
Though Grossman is maintaining an underwhelming .698 OPS on the season, he's at least been productive to begin August. After doubling twice and drawing a walk in Tuesday's 6-1 win, Grossman's slash line sits at .278/.381/.611 through six games this month. He'll remain in the lineup Wednesday for the sixth game in a row and should have a clear path to a regular role while Josh Jung (thumb) is on the shelf.

Grossman started at designated hitter and went 0-for-4 in Sunday's 6-0 win over the Marlins.
EDGE Analysis
Grossman made his third consecutive start and could see an uptick in plate appearances as the primary DH due to Josh Jung's thumb injury. The third baseman suffered a broken thumb on Sunday and likely faces a multi-week absence. Ezequiel Duran and Josh Smith are expected to fill in at third base, which opens up DH for Grossman. While that's a good thing for the player, it may be less so for fantasy managers. Grossman is batting .189 with a .634 OPS over 104 plate appearances since June 1. The Rangers could also rotation catchers Mitch Garver and Sam Huff at DH.

Grossman went 1-for-3 with a walk and a three-run home run in Saturday's 9-8 win over the Marlins.
EDGE Analysis
His fourth-inning shot off George Soriano got the Rangers on the board and snapped a 25-game power drought -- his last homer came June 11. Grossman's playing time has become inconsistent over the last couple months, but with both Leody Taveras (.544 OPS since the All-Star break) and Ezequiel Duran (.448 OPS since the break) slumping, the door could be open for the veteran outfielder to reclaim some of those lost plate appearances. In 12 post-ASB games, Grossman has a .250/.382/.500 slash line.

Grossman started in left field and went 2-for-5 with a double, a triple and two runs scored in Wednesday's 13-5 win over Houston.
EDGE Analysis
Grossman started for the first time in six games and was part of an emotional night in Houston that saw the benches clear, a couple of batters hit and Marcus Semien ejected. Travis Jankowski has become the left fielder du jour for the Rangers, which has marginalized Grossman who entered the contest with just 27 plate appearances during the month of July.

Grossman started in left field and went 3-for-4 with a double and an RBI in Tuesday's 6-2 win over Boston.
EDGE Analysis
Grossman, who made his first start since June 27, was in a serious funk and entered Tuesday hitting .120 (6-for-50) over the previous 18 games, although he did generate 10 walks. Left field is filled with a rotation of bodies, and both Ezequiel Duran and Travis Jankowski are swinging a better bat than Grossman.

Grossman went 1-for-3 with a solo home run in Sunday's 7-3 loss to the Rays.
EDGE Analysis
This was Grossman's first game action since Wednesday as he continues to slip into a bench role. He's hit safely in four of six games in June, going 4-for-18 (.222) with a homer, three RBI and two doubles. The veteran outfielder has a mediocre .238/.315/.392 slash line with seven homers, 32 RBI, 34 runs scored, eight doubles and no stolen bases over 216 plate appearances this season. He'll need to show a bit more to challenge either Ezequiel Duran in left field or Mitch Garver at designated hitter for more playing time.

Grossman is out of the lineup for Monday's game against the Cardinals.
EDGE Analysis
Grossman will sit for the third time in five games and may have moved into a backup role in the wake of Texas recently bringing back Ezequiel Duran and Mitch Garver from the injured list. With Duran likely to see most of his opportunities in left field for the foreseeable future and with Garver picking up his third straight start at designated hitter Monday, both of Grossman's primary avenues to playing time are now blocked.

Grossman is out of the lineup Saturday against the Mariners.
EDGE Analysis
Ezequiel Duran, Leody Taveras and Adolis Garcia will start across the outfield versus the Mariners and right-hander Bryan Woo. Mitch Garver is serving as the Rangers' designated hitter.

Grossman is not in the starting lineup Wednesday versus the Tigers.
EDGE Analysis
Grossman will take a seat after he went 0-for-5 with four walks and three runs scored over the first two games of the series. Bubba Thompson will draw the start in left field and bat ninth in the series finale with Detroit.

Grossman went 1-for-2 with a two-run home run and a second run scored in Friday's 12-2 win over Baltimore.
EDGE Analysis
Grossman joined the fun at Camden Yards with his sixth home run. He's been a streaky hitter for Texas and entered Friday's game with one hit over his previous 18 at-bats.
