Playing time drying up
Garcia is absent from the lineup for Thursday's contest versus the Twins.
Analysis
Garcia has been dealing with a lingering quad issue, and while he will be available to play again Thursday, he has made only one start over the last five contests. With the Rangers no longer in playoff contention, Garcia's playing time in the final days could continue to be sparse. Billy McKinney will be in right field and bat seventh for the second straight day.

Not in Wednesday's starting lineup
Garcia is not in the Rangers' starting lineup against the Twins on Wednesday.
Analysis
Garcia returned to the lineup Tuesday after missing the prior two games due to a lingering quad issue. He'll be available off the bench for Wednesday's tilt while Billy McKinney -- whose contract was selected by the Rangers from Triple-A Round Rock -- starts in right field and bats seventh.

Back in lineup Tuesday
Garcia (quadriceps) is starting in right field and batting fifth against the Twins on Tuesday.
Analysis
Garcia is still dealing with a quad issue that forced him to the injured list earlier this month. Despite his activation from the IL eight days ago, manager Bruce Bochy said this past Sunday that Garcia still isn't 100 percent. Since returning from the injured list, Garcia is 1-for-18 at the plate with zero extra-base hits, one RBI and a 0:4 BB:K.

Still bothered by quad
Rangers manager Bruce Bochy acknowledged prior to Sunday's game against the Marlins that Garcia is still not 100 percent recovered from the Grade 2 right quadriceps strain he sustained Sept. 1, Shawn McFarland of The Dallas Morning News reports.
Analysis
The quad issue forced Garcia to the injured list Sept. 5, though he was activated this past Sunday. Since returning to action, Garcia had gone just 1-for-18 with four strikeouts, and the lingering effects of the injury could help explain his struggles at the plate. Garcia was held out of the lineup Sunday for the second day in a row, and with the 79-76 Rangers on the cusp of being eliminated from wild-card contention, it wouldn't be surprising if he missed more time during the final week of the regular season.

Sitting in second straight game
Garcia is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Marlins.
Analysis
The Rangers have now left Garcia out of the lineup for two straight games while he's gone just 1-for-18 in five contests since returning from the injured list a week ago. He'll cede his spot in the Texas outfield to Michael Helman in the series finale.
