Profar Could Stick With Rangers When Kinsler Returns

The Rangers could keep Jurickson Profar on the roster when Ian Kinsler returns from the disabled list.


"If Wash [manager Ron Washington] can find ways to mix him in and, both for his sake but maybe more importantly to rest other guys -- both guys that are banged up a little bit and also guys that are slumping a little bit -- then I think it makes sense to keep him," Jon Daniels said.


"If we're not going to use him that way, then we'll send him down."


Daniels acknowledged the club has talked about moving Profar to the outfield if he is sent down to Triple-A Round Rock to make him more versatile.


"I don't know if we'd make him a full-time outfielder, but there are plenty of guys that break in at different positions to get their bats in the lineup," Daniels said. "That's something that's been talked about and something we may do."
