- 1B Mitch Moreland
- C Yorvit Torrealba
- SS Andres Blanco
Elvis Andrus gets a day off, and Beltre moves to DH, giving Young his first time at third base this season. This weakens the Rangers defensively at both spots on the left side of the infield at once. No word on why both Beltre and Andrus needed the same day off, instead of staggering them.
