Condition improvingManager Mike Matheny said that Dozier will put in a workout Sunday after he noticed a reduction in the swelling in his bruised right thumb, Anne Rogers of MLB.com reports.
ImpactDozier is out of the lineup for a second straight game Sunday against the Rangers, but Matheny noted that the 29-year-old could be available off the bench for the series finale depending on how he fares during the workout. He's being viewed as day-to-day for the time being and is seemingly on track to avoid a stint on the injured list.

Sitting out series finaleWhite is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Royals.
ImpactWhite picked up starts at designated hitter and in left field through Texas' first two games, going 2-for-7 with a walk and two RBI. He looks like he should see at least semi-regular work early on during the season with Willie Calhoun (groin) and Khris Davis (quadriceps) both on the shelf, but White will cede DH duties to Nate Lowe in the series finale. Meanwhile, Ronald Guzman gets the nod at first base in place of Lowe.

ImpactJonah Heim will catch Jordan Lyles in the series finale in Kansas City while Trevino presumably gets a routine breather after starting behind the plate in Texas' first two games. Trevino recorded four hits in nine at-bats between those contests, likely strengthening his hold on the No. 1 job in the process.

Remains out of lineupDozier (thumb) is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Rangers, Alec Lewis of The Athletic reports.
ImpactHe'll take a seat for the second straight game while he recovers from a bruised/swollen right thumb. Kansas City still seems to be viewing Dozier as day-to-day, but a trip to the injured list could grow more likely if he remains out of the lineup for Monday's series opener in Cleveland. Hanser Alberto is covering third base in place of Dozier on Sunday.
