Jankowski started in right field and went 1-for-3 with a stolen base in Thursday's 5-2 loss to Philadelphia.
EDGE Analysis
Jankowski got the start in right as Adolis Garcia was limited to DH duties for a second consecutive game. Garcia had missed two games with a right forearm injury and has yet to play the field since returning Wednesday. For Jankowski, who led the Rangers with 19 steals in 2023, it was just his second theft in 33 games this season.

Jankowski started in right field and went 1-for-4 in Sunday's 4-1 loss to the Angels.
EDGE Analysis
Jankowski was a late addition to the starting lineup when Adolis Garcia (forearm) was scratched. Imaging on Garcia's forearm came back clean, leading the Rangers to believe he'll ready for Tuesday's series-opener against Philadelphia following Monday's day off. Jankowski has recently seen more playing time than normal due to a run of outfield injuries. He's 7-for-25 (.280) over the last nine games.

Jankowski is not in the lineup for Friday's matchup against the Angels.
EDGE Analysis
The lefty-hitting outfielder will start from the bench as the Rangers take on lefty Tyler Anderson. With Evan Carter (back) banged up, Jankowski started the last three games in left field for the Rangers, going 3-for-10 in that stretch. Though Ezequiel Duran will take left field and bat seventh against Los Angeles.

Jankowski started at designated hitter and went 1-for-4 in Wednesday's 4-0 win over Cleveland.
EDGE Analysis
Jankowski made his third consecutive start and fourth in the last five games, but his opportunities may be coming to close. Evan Carter (lower back stiffness) is expected to return to the lineup Friday against the Angels, which is expected to move Jankowski back to a bench role. Additionally, the Angels' projected starter Friday is lefty Tyler Anderson, which would likely preclude Jankowski from making a fourth straight start.
