Players to Watch: Texas Rangers vs. Chicago White Sox
Texas Rangers
Ezequiel Duran — SS. Ezequiel Duran holds down shortstop for Texas and is hitting .270 this season, the highest average among the three Rangers hitters featured here, ahead of Jake Burger’s .233 and Joc Pederson’s .235. His .326 on-base percentage and .444 slugging mark give the lineup a combination of contact and pop from the left side of the infield.
Joc Pederson — DH. Joc Pederson provides pop in the middle of the Texas order, having launched 22 home runs this season, one more than Jake Burger’s 21 among the Rangers hitters in this game. His .235 average sits below Duran’s .270, but the 46 RBIs show he still drives in runs when he connects.
Jake Burger — 1B. Jake Burger has driven in 73 runs from first base this season, well up on Joc Pederson’s 46 among the Rangers hitters featured tonight. He has paired that number with 21 home runs and a .233 average, giving Texas a steady source of extra-base damage in the middle of the lineup.
Chicago White Sox
Chase Meidroth — 2B. Chase Meidroth has settled in at second base for Chicago and is hitting .269 with a .342 on-base percentage this season. His .399 slugging percentage rounds out a complete offensive profile for a player who gets everyday at-bats near the top of the White Sox order.
Miguel Vargas — 3B. Miguel Vargas has been Chicago’s top power source at third base, launching 29 home runs and driving in 74 runs this season, both ahead of Andrew Benintendi’s 13 home runs and 65 RBIs among the White Sox hitters featured tonight. His .245 average sits below Chase Meidroth’s .269, but the extra-base production gives the lineup a different look in the middle innings.
Andrew Benintendi — DH. Andrew Benintendi rounds out the White Sox attack at designated hitter, hitting .246 with 13 home runs and 65 RBIs this season. His .423 slugging percentage and .308 on-base mark make him a complementary bat behind the power of Vargas and the contact ability of Meidroth.
