Danny Duffy - Sidelined to begin season Triple-A Round Rock placed Duffy (forearm) on its 7-day injured list Friday.
Impact Duffy caught on with the Rangers on a minor-league deal in late January but didn't make any appearances during the Cactus League slate while working his way back from the left forearm strain that he sustained last September while he was in the midst of a minor-league rehab assignment with the Dodgers. The southpaw is without a clear timeline for a return and may be looking to reboot his career as a reliever after having not appeared in a game in the majors since 2021.

Jonah Heim - Resting Saturday Heim is out of the lineup for Saturday's game against the Phillies.
Impact Heim drew the nod behind the plate Opening Day and went 2-for-4 with a double, two runs and two RBI in Thursday's 11-7 win. Though he'll take a seat Saturday and give way to Mitch Garver behind the dish, Heim is still expected to be the Rangers' preferred option at catcher more often than not.

Impact Miller gets a second straight against a right-hander. He popped a home run in Thursday's opener as the DH and should be a lineup regular against righties.

Josh H. Smith - Making second straight start Smith will start in left field and bat ninth in Saturday's game against Philadelphia.
Impact Smith is making his second straight start in left field, both coming against right-handers. He was projected for utility work, but center fielder Leody Taveras's oblique injury forced manager Bruce Bochy to adjust the outfield. For the second straight game, Adolis Garcia starts in center and be flanked by Smith and Robbie Grossman. The Phillies are scheduled to throw left-hander Bailey Falter on Sunday, which will offer a glimpse into Bochy's lineup preferences against southpaws. Bubba Thompson could enter the starting nine in place of Smith in Sunday's series finale.

Mitch Garver - In Saturday's lineup Garver will start at catcher and bat seventh against the Phillies on Saturday.
Impact Garver is making his 2023 debut after ceding catching duties to Jonah Heim in the season opener Thursday. After playing just 14 games at catcher in 2022 due to a forearm injury, he may not qualify at catcher depending on league settings, but Garver is expected to share backstop duties with Heim in 2023. He'll also rotate at designated hitter along with Heim and Brad Miller, who will start at DH on Saturday.
