August 4, 2025 4:09 PM : Higashioka is not in the lineup for Monday's tilt against the Yankees.
Analysis: Higashioka started both of the previous two contests and five of the last six games, but he'll take a seat in Monday's series opener. Jonah Heim will handle catching duties and will bat eighth for the Rangers.
