Losing grip on platoon role
Lopez is out of the lineup for Monday's game against the White Sox.
Analyse
The Rangers will keep Lopez on the bench for a fifth consecutive game. Two of his absences from the lineup have come against right-handed pitchers, so the left-handed-hitting Lopez may have lost his grip on a strong-side platoon role in the Texas infield. Lopez's downturn in playing time comes while he's struggled to a .111/.167/.148 slash line over his last 23 games.

On bench for fourth straight game
Lopez is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Angels.
Analyse
Lopez will hit the bench for a fourth straight game, with three of those absences coming against left-handed pitching. Justin Foscue will draw the start at the keystone Sunday, but Lopez still appears to be the favored option at the position versus righties.
