Goes deep in Monday's loss
Pederson went 2-for-3 with a two-run home run and was hit by a pitch in Monday's loss to Minnesota.
Analisi
Pederson did all of Texas' offensive damage in the loss, clubbing a two-run homer into the right-field seats in the third inning. The veteran slugger entered Monday in a bit of a slump, having gone 3-for-21 (.143) across his previous eight appearances. On the year, Pederson has been an effective platoon bat against right-handed pitching, slashing .246/.352/.458 with nine homers, 25 RBI and 27 runs in 214 plate appearances.

Idle against southpaw
Pederson is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Red Sox.
Analisi
Pederson missed out on a start in Thursday's 4-2 win over the Royals due to left hip discomfort, but he returned to the starting nine at designated hitter for Friday's 10-1 loss in the series opener in Boston. The Rangers will keep Pederson on the bench for a second straight day to close out the series, though his absences in those games have more to do with the Red Sox sending left-handed starters to the hill for both contests. Texas will likely continue to heavily shield Pederson against left-handed pitching; he's faced southpaws for just 13 of his 175 plate appearances on the season.

Returns to action
Pederson went 2-for-3 with a run scored in Friday's 10-1 loss to the Red Sox.
Analisi
Pederson returned to the lineup after missing one game with a hip issue. He singled and scored the Rangers' lone run in the first inning. Pederson is an unconventional choice to bat leadoff, but he's rediscovered his bat since being moved there. He's slashing .289/.379/.632 with six home runs and 15 RBI across 23 games atop the order.

Good to go Friday
Pederson (hip) is batting leadoff as the designated hitter Friday against the Red Sox.
Analisi
The veteran slugger sat out Thursday's series finale in Kansas City after exiting Wednesday's contest due to left hip discomfort, but he's ready to go after sitting out one game. Pederson had a hot start to June -- going 5-for-12 with three extra-base hits in the first three contests of the month -- but he has just one hit across his past five games.

Held out with hip injury
Pederson (hip) is not in the lineup for Thursday's contest in Kansas City.
Analisi
Pederson had to be lifted from Wednesday's game with left hip discomfort, so it's not a surprise he's not ready to play in Thursday's matinee. Whether Pederson will wind up requiring a stint on the injured list is unclear. Brandon Nimmo is getting a day at designated hitter for the Rangers, and Ezequiel Duran will play right field in the series finale.

Pulled with hip discomfort
Pederson was removed from Wednesday's game against the Royals with left hip discomfort, Kennedi Landry of MLB.com reports.
Analisi
Pederson went 0-for-1 with a walk before leaving Wednesday's contest in the fifth inning. It remains unknown whether his hip will cause him to miss additional games, but the Rangers may provide more information after the game.
