Snaps hitless slide, swipes bag
Taveras went 2-for-4 with a home run, two RBI and a stolen base in Wednesday's 5-1 win over Tampa Bay.
Impact
Taveras' third inning solo shot snapped an 0-for-12 slide, then he added a run-scoring single in the seventh. It was the outfielder's 11th home run and first in 11 contests. The steal leaves Taveras with 10 in 82 games, the third consecutive season with double-digit steals.

Gets rare day off
Taveras is out of the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Red Sox.
Impact
Taveras will take a seat after going 0-for-4 in Tuesday's 6-2 win over Boston, breaking a streak of three straight games with multiple hits to open July. Travis Jankowski will fill in for Taveras in center field.

Three more hits, homer Monday
Taveras went 3-for-4 with a home run, three RBI and an additional run scored in Monday's 12-11 loss against the Astros.
Impact
Taveras got the Rangers on the board with a two-run shot off Cristian Javier in the third inning before adding two more hits later in the game. It's Tavares' fifth multi-hit effort in his last nine games -- he's gone 13-for-33 (.394) with five extra-base hits in that span. Overall, the 24-year-old outfielder is slashing .306/.353/.494 with a career-best 10 homers, 39 RBI, 43 runs scored and nine stolen bases through 276 place appearances this season.

Goes deep in loss
Taveras batted sixth and went 1-for-4 with a solo home run in Thursday's 8-5 loss to the Tigers.
Impact
Taveras, who's batted eighth or ninth in 57 of 63 starts in 2023, was moved up to sixth with a couple of regulars getting the day off. His sixth-inning home run was his ninth of the season and seventh in 25 games during the month of June.

ROTOWIRE
Takes seat Tuesday
Taveras is absent from the lineup Tuesday versus the Tigers.
Impact
Travis Jankowski is recovered from a bout of left hamstring soreness and will get the start in center field for the Rangers. Taveras went 0-for-4 with three strikeouts in Monday's loss to Detroit but has impressed to the tune of a .293/.345/.467 batting line with eight homers and eight steals in 64 total games this season.

Productive in loss
Taveras went 2-for-3 with a double, an RBI and a stolen base in Sunday's 5-3 loss to the Yankees.
Impact
Taveras' second-inning double plated Ezequiel Duran, who had doubled before him, to give Texas an early 3-0 lead. He's been productive at the bottom of the order of late, batting .340 with three home runs, two doubles, seven RBI, two walks, two steals and six runs scored over the last 12 games as the ninth-place hitter.

Smashes another home run
Taveras went 3-for-5 with a two-run homer, an additional RBI and an additional run scored in Sunday's victory over the Blue Jays.
Impact
Taveras launched a two-run homer off Adam Cimber in the seventh that scored Ezequiel Duran and marked his third long ball in his last five games, and his sixth in June (15 games) after entering the month with just two in his first 42 games. Taveras is having a career year in 2023, slashing .302/.357/.495 and is on pace to set new bests in runs scored, hits, RBI and steals while already having surpassed his previous home run record with eight.

Mashes seventh homer
Taveras went 1-for-3 with a solo home run in Friday's 2-1 loss to the Blue Jays.
Impact
He spoiled a possible shutout bid for Kevin Gausman by taking the right-hander deep in the third inning. The long ball was the seventh of the season for Taveras and fourth in his last eight contests, a stretch in which he's batting .321 with two steals, five RBI, six runs and a stunning 4:1 BB:K. Despite the continues evolution of his offensive game, Taveras remains mostly stuck in the ninth spot in the Rangers' batting order, a less than ideal assignment for his fantasy value.

Belts one of three homers
Taveras went 2-for-4 with a home run, two RBI and stolen base in Wednesday's 6-3 win over the Angels.
Impact
Taveras connected for his sixth home run in the third inning, the first of three homers hit by the powerful Rangers' lineup. It took Taveras, who started the season on the injured list, about 60 plate appearances to get his timing down. Since May 1, the outfielder slashed .346/.401/.549 with six home runs and 23 RBI over 37 games.

Reaches four times in loss
Taveras went 3-for-5 with a walk, double and steal in Monday's loss against the Angels.
Impact
Taveras continues to provide a patient approach at the bottom of the Rangers' lineup and has drawn a walk in four straight appearances. He also has three-extra base hits during that stretch. Monday's performance marked the outfielder's sixth three-hit game of the season, and he's currently slashing .302/.364/.469 with five home runs, 26 RBI, six stolen bases and 31 runs scored across 51 games (199 plate appearances).

ROTOWIRE
Two solo home runs in loss
Taveras went 2-for-2 with a walk and two solo home runs in Friday's 8-3 loss against Tampa Bay.
Impact
Taveras notched his first multi-homer game of the season and has tied his career-best mark with five long balls already. The 24-year-old has appeared in 48 of the Rangers' first 62 games, so he's not quite an everyday player, but he's been able to make an impression when in the lineup. Across 185 plate appearances, Taveras is slashing .304/.359/.476 with 26 RBI, five stolen bases and 29 runs scored.

Not in Wednesday's lineup
Taveras is absent from the lineup for Wednesday's contest against the Cardinals.
Impact
Taveras missed a game Sunday with a bruised knee but before that hadn't had a day off since May 2. Travis Jankowski will be in center field for the Rangers on Wednesday.

Back in lineup Monday
Taveras (knee) is starting in center field and batting ninth Monday versus the Cardinals.
Impact
Taveras missed Sunday's contest with a bruised knee, but he'll return to the lineup after just one absence. Since May 20, the outfielder has secured at least one hit in 10 out of his last 13 games, batting .347 with two homers, nine RBI and eight runs scored over that stretch.

Managing bruised knee
Taveras is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against Seattle due to a knee bruise, Evan Grant of The Dallas Morning News reports.
Impact
Taveras and J.P. Crawford each suffered knee bruises when they collided late in Saturday's contest, and both players are out of the starting nine for Sunday's series finale. The injury snaps a run of 28 consecutive starts for Taveras.

Out of Sunday's lineup
Taveras is not for Sunday's game against the Mariners.
Impact
Taveras started the past 28 games and will receive a day off after he went 2-for-5 with a three-run home run during Saturday's contest. Travis Jankowski will take over in center field for Sunday's series finale.

Goes deep in win
Taveras went 2-for-4 with a home run, three RBI, two runs scored and a walk in Friday's victory against the Orioles.
Impact
Taveras went deep in the second inning for his first homer since May 3 and second of the season. He's been incredible this month, going 29-for-75 (.387) with 15 RBI and six extra-base hits in 21 games. The extended hot streak has given him a .310/.375/.434 slash line and an everyday role in centerfield for Texas.

Does damage in win
Taveras went 2-for-3 with a double, three RBI and two runs scored in Sunday's 13-3 win over the Rockies.
Impact
Taveras increased Texas' lead to 9-0 with a three-run double in the fifth inning. The outfielder, who missed the first two weeks of the season and batted .204 in April, is raking in May with a .377/.435/.492 line, seven walks, 12 RBI, four steals and 10 runs scored over 17 games.

Nabs fifth steal
Taveras went 1-for-2 with a walk, a run scored and a stolen base in Tuesday's 7-4 win over Atlanta.
Impact
The 24-year-old center fielder has cooled down slightly, but he's still putting together an outstanding May. Taveras is slashing .404/.453/.532 over his last 13 games with one homer, seven runs, eight RBI and four of his five steals on the season, and the only thing limiting his fantasy upside at the moment is the fact that he hasn't hit higher than seventh in the batting order.

ROTOWIRE
Swipes base in win
Taveras went 1-for-3 with a walk, a stolen base and an RBI in Thursday's 4-0 win over the Athletics.
Impact
Taveras' fifth-inning single knocked in Josh Jung for what turned out to be the game-winning run, and the stolen base was his third in six tries. Following an inconsistent stretch off the injured list when he batted .204 over 16 games, Taveras has gone 14-for-30 (.467) over the next eight games.

Reaches four times in loss
Taveras went 3-for-3 with a solo home run, a walk and a caught stealing during Wednesday's 12-7 loss to the Diamondbacks.
Impact
The 24-year-old hit the bench Tuesday after a 1-for-17 slump that saw him strike out 10 times, but he rejoined the lineup Wednesday and delivered his first homer and third three-hit game of the season. Taveras tallied 21 stolen bases in 148 games for the Rangers over the previous two seasons, but he's yet to find much success in the running game this year, going 1-for-3 on attempted steals. He has a .246/.317/.404 slash line with six RBI and 11 runs in 63 plate appearances.
